National Route 20 (Vietnamese:Quốc lộ 20) is a highway in southern and centralVietnam connecting Dau Giay inĐồng Nai Province withDa Lat inLâm Đồng Province. It is the main route into theCentral Highlands and to Da Lat fromHo Chi Minh City.
The highway starts on at Dau Giay junction, fromNational Route 1, the north–south highway. Just a few km further east, theHo Chi Minh City–Long Thanh–Dau Giay Expressway branches off National Route 1A. The road leads north through densely populated countryside with rubber plantations, fruit orchards and farmland, on the banks ofTri An Reservoir. North ofTan Phu, the landscape becomes hilly, entering the Central Highlands. InĐạ Huoai District, the road leads through a pass, entering the highland aroundBảo Lộc. Further north, the road passes through Liên Khương,Đức Trọng District, where theDau Giay-Dalat Expressway branches off. The road then leads through Pass Prenn, before descending towards Da Lat.
The road has been described as a 'death road', with many accidents occurring due to high traffic, numerous trucks (carrying agricultural products between the Central Highlands and southern Vietnam), and high tourist traffic.[1]
