pronunciation (help·info) or sometimes Buon Ma Thuat, Buon Ma Thuat, Ban Me Thuot, or Banmethuot, is the capital city of Dak Lak Province, in the Central Highlands of Vietnam. Its population is approximately 300,000. The city is the largest in Vietnam's Central Highlands region and is famous as the regional "capital of coffee". It was originally settled by the Ê Đê but due to the incoming Viêt settlement after the Vietnam war and the active acculturation policy, only around 40,000 people are Montagnards.
Buon Ma Thuot is served by Buon Ma Thuot Airport.
