Dakbla Restaurant in Kon Tum Province, which is famous for its waterfalls and ethnic villages, is an interesting place to recharge the batteries with a meal and a coffee, because of the restaurant’s collection of antiques and cultural artifacts of the local ethnic people.
|
| Many artifacts are on display at the restaurant. They are objects that are used in the daily life of local ethnic people, giving tourists an insight into communities such as Bahna, Ede, Gia Rai and M’Nong. |

| Ho Cong Van, the owner of the restaurant, has collected the artifacts since the 80s when he taught literacy to the tribes. There are shields of Xedang people, bamboo chairs and animal leather of Gie Rieng people, masks of the Ede as well as many gongs, hunting knives, old statues and a shirt made of tree bark. |
