12°40′N 108°3′E / 12.667°N 108.050°E / 12.667; 108.050 Buôn Ma Thuột (formerly Lạc Giao) or sometimes Buôn Mê Thuột or Ban Mê Thuột (listen), is the capital city of Đắk Lắk Province in the Central Highlands of Vietnam. Its population was 375,590 in 2019. The city is the largest in Vietnam's Central Highlands region and is famous as the regional "capital of coffee".
Buôn Ma Thuột has Buôn Ma Thuột Airport as its main airport.
Names
The name Buôn Ma Thuột derives from the language of the Ê Đê people. A possible interpretation of this language is the village of Father Thuot. Father Thuot, or Ama Y Thuot, held considerable power and prestige as the governing figure of Buon Ma Thuot Village during the late 19th century.
History
In 1904 Đắk Lắk Province was established by the French and Buôn Ma Thuột was selected as the provincial administrative centre, rather than the trading center of Đôn on the Srepok River. Buôn Ma Thuột was originally settled by the Ê Đê, but due to the incoming Việt settlement after the Vietnam War and the active acculturation policy, less than 15% (around 40,000) are still Montagnards. An important battle took place there at the end of the Vietnam war.
Geography
The city is located at 12.6667° N 108.0500° E, right at the heart of the Central Highlands of Vietnam, 1300 km from Hanoi, 500 km from Da Nang, and 350 km from Ho Chi Minh City. Lying on a fairly flat highland, at an average height of 536 m (1,759 ft) above sea level, Buôn Ma Thuột has a vital role in Vietnam's national security and defense system. Buôn Ma Thuột is the capital of Đắk Lắk Province and also the biggest city in the Central Highlands region (Tây Nguyên).
Institutions
Buôn Ma Thuột is the site of Tây Nguyên University, which was founded in 1977 and has educated more than 27,000 students. The TNU offers training in 37 university programs, 8 college programs, and 6 college-university interlinking programs and pre-university programs.
