A French alpine town hidden in the Vietnamese highlands, built at fifteen hundred metres by an empire that could not stand its own tropics. An Art Deco railway station, a rooster-topped cathedral, a palace hotel, and a curved red-brick lycee ring a lake that did not exist until the French dammed a stream. Later Vietnam kept the borrowed France and filled it with flowers, pagodas, and one architect's concrete dream.
