The Crazy House or Hang Nga Guesthouse in Da Lat city of Lam Dong province has been listed among the world’s secret marvels “that you never knew existed” by Lonely Planet - the largest travel guide book publisher in the world.

Crazy House is owned by architect Dang Viet Nga and well-known for its unique architecture which resembles a melted candle.

On its website, the Lonely Planet described “Crazy House is different from every angle: on one side, warped walls seem menacing and windows glare like eye sockets; from another, traditional Vietnamese designs adorn the eaves”. 

“Beds are cradled in cauldron-like chambers, latticed windows look like spider’s webs, while fittings are decorated with giraffe-skin patterns or camouflaged as tree stumps,” it said. 

Da Lat, the capital city of the Central Highlands province of Lam Dong, is a resort city with temperate climate and scenic landscape.
