The park was created by the workers of the Dankia-Suoi Vang Water Supply Plant, who began developing the area in the early 2000s.
The landscape architecture intentionally blends the natural pine forest of the Lang Biang plateau with Japanese-inspired rock garden elements.
The park is situated on a peninsula extending into the Dankia-Suoi Vang reservoir, the primary water source for Dalat.
The site contains a specific garden zone dedicated to rare and endemic orchid species found in the Lam Dong province.
The area is noted for its high concentration of 'Mimosa' (Acacia dealbata) trees, which bloom in shades of yellow during the dry season.
Thung Lũng Vàng (Golden Valley) is a landscaped park located on the banks of the Dankia-Suoi Vang Lake in the Central Highlands of Vietnam. The site is characterized by extensive pine forests, manicured rock gardens, and artificial streams integrated into the natural topography. The park layout incorporates traditional Vietnamese landscaping elements alongside expansive lawns used for recreational activities. It serves as an eco-tourism destination focused on forest conservation and native flora cultivation. The area features a significant collection of bonsai trees and local orchid species maintained within specialized garden zones. Visitors can access walking paths that traverse the elevated slopes overlooking the reservoir. The park is managed to emphasize the preservation of the surrounding ecosystem of the Lang Biang plateau. It remains one of the primary green spaces in the Lạc Dương district for outdoor leisure.
