If you’ve considered visiting Vietnam as a family (and even if you haven’t), you’ve probably seen the Vietnam Rainbow Slides on social media at some point. We did when we were researching our November 2025 family trip to Vietnam. Since our boys are thrill seekers, we couldn’t miss the chance to hop on an inner tube and ride the rainbow.
Where is the rainbow slide in Vietnam?
Before visiting, many people think there’s just one rainbow slide in Vietnam (so they’ll ask, “Where is THE rainbow slide in Vietnam?”), but there are actually a few locations where you can experience this type of slide. Since Vietnam stretches very far north to south, we’ve made this guide to help you find a rainbow slide in Vietnam wherever you’re planning to visit.

Mongoland, Dalat is the home to the largest rainbow slide is a bit out of the way (6 hours north of Ho Chi Minh and another half day trip to Nha Trang), we wanted to create a guide to rainbow slides throughout Vietnam in case you’d like to try one out but won’t be near Dalat.
How Rainbow Slides Work:
Rainbow slides are also called dry slides (to distinguish them from brightly-colored waterslides). Riders sit on an inner tube covered with a nylon outer layer that glides over the slide.
These slides are made up of hexagon (6-sided) plastic interlocking discs with wheels built in (as one exception, we did see one slide at Swing Sapa that was square tiles with the same rolling mechanism). These discs can be rearranged (and often are in the off-season) to change the designs and color styles of particular slides from stripes to flowers to designs that are limited only by imagination.
These rainbow slide tiles are often sprayed with water to reduce friction from dust
The slides are often sprayed with water to reduce friction and increase downhill speed (and on a hot day, it’s a nice bit of relief for the rider!).
Some slides are wide enough for a pair of riders to ride side-by-side, while others can accommodate eight or ten people at a time.
This slide (from Tuan Chau Farm in Halong) shows how the tiles fit together.
Smaller Rainbow Slides: A variation
We have seen a few variations with multiple single-lane slides in a park section. These are still made up of the same discs, but typically they’re a single color top to bottom (a single-lane slide that is all red, for instance) and grouped together with other single-lane slides to look like a rainbow (red slide, blue slide, yellow, green, etc).
These are the single rider rainbow slides where you’ll often ride in a plastic sled rather than an innertube
On these single-lane slides, riders usually sit in sleds that go downhill (this is our 16 year old in the photo above). These are a fun ride, but most people want to ride the full-size inner-tube rainbow slides in Vietnam, as seen on Instagram, so that’s what we’re focusing on for the rest of this post.
The Largest Rainbow Slide in Vietnam: Mongo Land in Da Lat
Before we get to the other rainbow slides, let’s just start with the biggest rainbow slide in Vietnam at Mongo Land in Da Lat. The Mongo Land Rainbow Slide is not only the longest, but also the widest. Our family of 5 went down side-by-side, but we saw groups of eight or ten people coming down all at once – usually starting side-by-side but ending in a huddle at the bottom of the slide.
The Mongoland slide is the one featured in our Instagram video above.
This is the longest dry slide in Vietnam and ends with an upward ramp (like a runaway truck ramp on the highway in the mountains), so you’ll end the slide by working against gravity along with some friction on astroturf. It’s anything but abrupt.
Da Lat is a bit out of the way if you’re visiting the big city centers like Ho Chi Minh, Nha Trang, Da Nang/Hoi An, or Hanoi, but if you’ve got the flexibility and HAVE to try the famous rainbow slide, Mongoland is the place to visit, along with a petting zoo, breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and rice terraces, and a go kart track.
There are plenty of other things to do at Mongo Land and in the Da Lat area, so your family will have plenty to choose from.
Rainbow Slides from Northern Vietnam to Southern Vietnam
Since Vietnam is very long north to south, we’re going to organize the slides accordingly. There are quite a few throughout the country, so you’ll likely be able to find one near your destination. We’ll give you some insights on the ones we visited, and provide some ways to get more details on the ones we didn’t get to this trip.
Specifics are sometimes challenging, with parks often using their Facebook page as their website (and on facebook, information is only organized chronologically, not with a menu like a website, so it can be a challenge), but we’ve tried to source the best possible information for you.
Starting in Northern Vietnam:
Sapa Green Valley (Thung Lung Xahn)
Sa pa is in the north, about a 6-hour bus ride from the capital of Hanoi
Sa Pa is a town at a high elevation, almost to the border of China, and a summer escape for the locals from the heat of the big cities like Hanoi and Haiphong. While we were here, we enjoyed the Rainbow slide at Sapa Green Valley (Thung Lung Xanh in Vietnamese).
Besides a few picture opportunities and a cafe, there wasn’t much else at the park besides the rainbow slide, but with only a 100,000 VND (about $5) admission for unlimited rides, it was worth the stop.
The Sa Pa Green Valley Rainbow Slide is the main attraction
Here’s our full review of the Sapa Green Valley park.
Being that it’s a tourist town, there are actually multiple rainbow slides near Sapa:
-
-
- Swing Sapa (3 rides included in admission to the park)
- Cat Cat Village (pay per ride after paying admission to the park)
- Sunworld Fansipan (included in admission to the park after a cable car ride or funicular ride from the entrance station up the mountain to the park)
-
Swing Sapa
On the other side of Sapa from Green Valley is Swing Sapa. We didn’t find this park to be very well taken care of, but the admission was only a couple dollars more than Green Valley, and included a bottle of water, three rides on their rainbow slide (slightly smaller), a pickleball court, and 20 minutes on electric scooters/karts around a paved track.
Fun fact: Swing Sapa was the only rainbow slide we found with square tiles instead of hexagon
We all loved the electric karts, and if it weren’t for that, this park wouldn’t have been worth the admission.
There are other things to do in the park (like photo opportunities and a playground), but most were in disrepair, and the photos we saw online of Swing Sapa are clearly heavily edited compared to what you can expect to experience in the park. The Facebook page showed photos of clouds overlooking the valley, and on arrival, we realized none of those photo locations actually existed, since neighborhoods surround the park, and you would have to have a 1-in-a-million chance for the exact weather conditions to get a thick, low-lying cloud in that neighborhood.
Still, for a few dollars, it was an entertaining afternoon, but set your expectations with a grain of salt if you’re basing your visit on the pictures they show on their Facebook page.
We wouldn’t suggest a 6-hour bus trip out of Hanoi just to visit one of these rainbow slides, but if you’re looking for things to do in Sapa, there are plenty of options from hiking to adventure (and great food!)
Moc Chau Island: West of Hanoi
Moc Chau seems like a resort getaway town at a higher elevation – an alternative to Sa Pa that’s a bit closer to Hanoi. Moc Chau Island is not actually an island; it’s just the name of the park, with a rainbow slide that’s 250m long (they call theirs an Airlslide), which seems close to the length of the longest rainbow slide in Da Lat.
Tickets are in a variety of combos, from admission only (Around $5) to pay-as-you-go for rides (Around $2-$3 each) and attractions, to unlimited play passes (around $35 for the day). There are also options to stay at the Moc Chau Island Resort with packages that include meals and park access.

Hanoi, Vietnam Rainbow Slides
Hanoi has a few rainbow slides to choose from, and each is inside a theme park.
Bai Da Song Hong
Bai Da Song Hong Park looks very much like a garden, with lush greenery, beaches along a river, and fruit, and is about a 20-minute drive from downtown Hanoi. The park includes go-karts, a playground, and a petting zoo to make it a great afternoon visit.This park looks to be around $5 admission (100,000 VND) but their facebook page seems to offer last-minute sales from time to time with admissions around $3/person.
We didn’t make it to this one, but it looks like a similar size to Mongoland.

VinWonders Wave Park & Water Park Hanoi
Vinwonders is a water park with wave pools, water activities, rope courses, and – of course – a rainbow slide.
This Rainbow Slide is not the main attraction since it’s fairly short (See Vinwonders Man Hoi An below – we’re guessing a similar model) and isn’t one of the impressive slides you’ve seen plastered on social media, but if you’ve got kids who are more interested in water slides than garden photo posing, then you can try out the rainbow slide and experience what all of the hype is about.
Note: Vinwonders has both a wave park and a water park (where the rainbow slide is). You can choose separate admissions, or you can get a combo ticket that allows you to go back and forth. For a combined ticket price of $11, we’d just get both and then you don’t have to explain to your kids which activities are included and which aren’t. Check Vinwonders Wave & Water Park Tickets here.
Tuan Chau Farm, Halong (East of Hanoi)
If you’ve been researching a trip to Vietnam, you’ve probably heard about Halong Bay Cruises (either day cruises or overnight cruises). Many of those cruises leave from Tuan Chau Island, accessible by bridge from Halong, and right before you get to the cruise port, you’ll see Tuan Chau Park, which is backed by Tuan Chau Farm.
If you’re after a rainbow slide, Tuan Chau Farm (small petting zoo, really) gives you access to a rainbow slide up the top of the hill behind the lake. It’s not the largest we’ve been on, but somewhere in the midrange. It will make some impressive social media videos if that’s your goal.
100,000 VND admission (About $5) includes unlimited rides on inner tubes down their slide.

Central Vietnam Rainbow Slides:
We flew from the south up to the central coast (Nha Trang to Da Nang) and again from the central coast up to the north (Da Nang to Hanoi). We’re sure there are plenty of things to see in between, but with so much to see in Vietnam in just a month, we wanted to stop in Da Nang / Hoi An on the central coast and keep going.
I share this to explain that Vietnam is very vast from North to South, so do your research while planning your trip, since it isn’t just a day trip from one to the other.
VinWonders Nam Hoi An Rainbow Slide
Da Nang and Hoi An are two cities fairly close to each other on the central coast of Vietnam. Many people will stay in one and day trip to the other, and talk about them as if “Da Nang Hoi An” are a single city.
Hoi An, Vietnam
Like the Vinwonders in Hanoi, this is likely the same slide model – a 5-second slide on an inner tube. It’s worth it if you’re in the park anyway, but it’s not worth making the trip out of the city and paying full-day admission to a theme park for this particular experience.
Rainbow Slide at VinWonders Nam Hoi An
There are plenty of other things to do at VinWonders Nam Hoi An, from a 4D theater, a full water park, bird shows, an unlimited indoor arcade, an indoor trampoline park, a water safari cruise, and a great selection of shopping and restaurants.
Our boys (16, 14, and 11) said they could easily have spent multiple days at this park, so there’s no shortage of activities, but if you’re looking for the massive iconic rainbow slides from Instagram, this isn’t one of them.
Da Lat, Vietnam:
Dalat, Vietnam
The Largest Rainbow Slide in Vietnam: Mongo Land, Da Lat
It’s back for an honorable mention because it’s located in southern Vietnam. Originally founded during the French colonization, Dalat is a mountain town situated on a lake that was a retreat from the heat of Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) in the valley and the beach-goers on the coast.
The largest rainbow slide in Vietnam: Mongoland Dalat
Mongo Land still claims to be the largest, and while our family’s experience at Mongo Land leads us to believe that’s true, they haven’t published specifics about the dimensions of their slide. I would imagine it’s only a matter of time before someone decides to build something significantly longer just to take the title.
If you’re after the longest, visit Mongo Land. Da Lat has a great tourism economy, but along with that comes the reality that every hotel front desk, shop owner, and taxi driver (we used Grab) will offer you to take you to the best park and sell you the best tickets.
If you say “Rainbow slide” you may not be getting to Mongo Land, so ask for Mongo Land specifically (or use the Grab app to book your trip there so there isn’t any confusion).
Mongo Land was around $7 per person and that include a speciality drink like a boba tea, coffee, or fruit juice. Here’s our full review of Mongoland, Dalat. Mongoland was a great half-day visit. We coupled it with a stop at Cao Nguyen Hoa Track (nicknamed Mario Kart downhill track in Dalat) to make a full day trip.
There are a few combo trips that will combine both parks and include since they’re not far from eachother:
Puppy Farm Rainbow Slide, Da Lat
The puppy farm seems to have a number of attractions besides puppies, from photo opportunities in fields of flowers, go-karts, and fresh fruit grown on site.
$5 per person admission gives you access to the full park (and unlimited rides on the rainbow slide – in their words “Super long, super wide”). We’re not sure how this compares to Mongoland, but our guess would be that it’s close (since they’re clearly trying to compete and the rainbow slide is front and center on their website home page).
Dapa Hill Rainbow Slide, Da Lat
This park is just down the road from Mongo Land, so you could go for a double experience and let us know what you think. From the pictures, this slide looks like it could be the same size as Puppy Farm or Mongo, but Dapa Hills doesn’t have a website and operates from a Facebook page, so details on hours, pricing, and specifics on their Rainbow slide are a bit hard to come by.
We would guess the entry is around 100,000 VND ($5), as is typical for this area, and they have scenic photo spots, a petting zoo, and, of course, the rainbow slide.
It seems that when something works in an area of Vietnam, others adopt the model and make it work for them, too. This slide is definitely wider than Mongo land, but doesn’t seem as long.

Rainbow Slide in Southern Vietnam:
If you’re visiting Ho Chi Minh City, there is a rainbow slide that’s a day trip (or an overnight trip away) in Can Tho, which is also the home of the Cai Rang floating market, so this would be a worthwhile combined trip by taking a bus down to the tourist village for the first day, then staying the night and getting up early to visit to floating market.
My Khanh Tourist Village, Can Tho
Mỹ Khánh Tourist Village in Cần Thơ is a large, countryside-style attraction that blends Mekong Delta culture with fun, family-friendly activities. The village showcases traditional crafts like rice-paper and noodle-making, and offers local Mekong cuisine along with the My Khanh hotel and resort amenities.
You can also expect tourist-friendly entertainment: folk games, boat rides, a rainbow slide, water activities, and hands-on experiences like feeding fish or picking fruit straight from the trees.
The Rainbow slide here looks quite large according to their blog – we would guess something similar to what you would find at Mongo Land in Da Lat.
FAQs about the Vietnam Rainbow Slides:
Where is the largest Rainbow slide in Vietnam?
Mongo Land, DaLat claims to have the longest (and widest) rainbow slide. This matches our experience, although we haven’t visited all of them.
Is the colorful rainbow slide at Mongo Land (Da Lat) worth visiting?
Our boys (16, 14, and 11) enjoyed our visit to Mongo Land. We arrived around noon and spent the whole afternoon there until we had to leave around 5pm. Here’s our full review of Mongoland.
How far is Mongo Land (Da Lat) from the city center (How do I get there)?
We used Grab (the local version of uber) and were at the park in about 30 minutes from our Da Lat hotel. The total cost for the drive was about 120,000 VND (about $6 USD) each way.
Is the rainbow slide in Sapa Green Valley worth trying?
Our boys said yes. They rode the slide multiple times, and admission was only 100,000VND (About $5) each. There were are few other things to do at the park, but the rainbow slide was clearly the main attraction. Our family decided that now that we’ve tried it, it wouldn’t be worth a second trip back. There are lots of other things to do with kids in Sapa, but for a few dollars, it’s a great afternoon activity.
We wouldn’t recommend making a trip to Sapa to visit this park, but the rainbow slide is worth the visit if you’re in Sapa already.
Is the Mega Grand World (Hanoi) rainbow slide worth doing?
Careful! There isn’t actually a rainbow slide at Mega Grand World in Hanoi.
The full-size Rainbow slide in Hanoi is at a park called Bai Da Song Hong, which is a short drive from Mega Grand World if you’re staying in that area. We’re pretty convinced, after some research, that a popular travel website is lumping the tour to both destinations (Grand World and Bai Da Song Hong) into a single package, which causes some confusion about how people (and search engines) are getting their information about them being connected.
There is a small rainbow slide in Vinwonders Wave and Waterpark Hanoi (which is near Grandworld and owned by the same company, VinWonders), but that’s a small version and not the rainbow slide you’ve seen on social.
Can you take photos or videos on the rainbow slide?
This depends on each park, but we’ve been able to use our phones to take video on all the slides we’ve been on, except for the small rainbow slide at VinWonders Nam Hoi An – in that case, they asked us to leave our phones in the cubby at the bottom of the slide.
Why doesn’t the rainbow slide pattern in real life look like the one in the video?
Vietnam rainbow slides are made up of colorful tiles. These tiles can be (and often are) rearranged to change the style and design of the slide – sometimes stripes, flowers, geometric shapes, or to spell letters. We would NOT recommend choosing a park to visit based on the slide design you see on social media or their website, since it could be different when you arrive.
