Koho People

The K’Ho, Cơ Ho, or Koho are an ethnic group living in the Lâm Đồng province of Vietnam’s Central Highlands. They speak K’Ho language, a southern Bahnaric branch of Mon–Khmer language. They are related to the Cho Ro and Mạ people.

The Lạch people, a subgroup of K’Ho, is the indigenous group of Lâm Đồng. The name of the city of Da Lat (Lâm Đồng’s capital) originated from Đà Lạch (literally “river of the Lạch people”).
