Learn about the faithful love story between K'lang and H'Biang

Coming to the LangBiang Mountain tourist area in Da Lat, you will discover the loyal yet tragic love story of K'lang and H'Biang. And perhaps the name LangBiang also originates from this mythical tale.

There is a legend that tells of a young man named K'Lang (from the Lat people, a branch of the K'Ho ethnic group) and a young woman named H'Biang (from the Chil people, another branch of the K'Ho ethnic group) who lived at the foot of the mountain. They met by chance while going to the forest to pick fruit. One time, while picking fruit, H'Biang had an accident and encountered a pack of ferocious wolves. Fortunately, K'Lang found her and risked his life to rescue her from the wolves.

They met again and fell in love. However, due to the curse between their two tribes, H'Biang and K'Lang could not be together. Because of their love for each other, they resolved to overcome all strict customs and prohibitions to be together. They moved up the high mountain and lived together. But unfortunately, H'Biang fell gravely ill, and K'Lang tried everything to cure her but failed. He decided to return to inform the villagers to find a way to save her, but he was driven away by the villagers.

At the end of the story, H'Biang died when she blocked an arrow poisoned by the villagers meant to kill K'Lang. Grieving over H'Biang's death, K'Lang cried so much that his tears flowed into a stream, now named Da Nhim (Stream of Tears). After the death of the two, Biang's father was filled with remorse and united the tribes into a single ethnic group called K'Ho. From then on, young couples in the village could easily marry. The high mountain in La Ngu Thuong village, where K'lang and H'biang died, was named Langbiang Mountain – a combination of the couple's names, to honor them and their love.
