The construction has the architecture of the traditional long house of the Ede ethnic minority. It is the result of cooperation between the French Republic and the Vietnam Museum of Ethnology. Dak Lak Museum is the first museum in Vietnam to use four display languages of Vietnamese, French, English and the Ede.

The Central Highlands area, including Dak Lak Province located adjacent to HCMC, has a huge tourism cooperation potential with the city and localities in the South central coastal region. HCMC highly appreciated tourism linkage with the cities and provinces in the Central Highlands and South central coastal areas. The trip aims to build more tourist products and make preparations for the conference of tourism cooperation between the Southeastern, Central Highlands and South central coastal regions, said Director of the HCMC Tourism Department Nguyen Thi Anh Hoa.
