The stunning picture of Mekong Delta tour
It takes you a few hours from HCMC to Mekong Delta. Mekong Delta, the so-called
Western region of Vietnam, is mostly known for its fertile rice growing conditions, past
the rolling paddy fields and endless charm to discover. Paying a visit to Mekong Delta is so unforgettable a memory because of the region’s diversity. You will catch sight of
picturesque scenes like children riding on the backs of water buffalo or cycling to school through countryside lanes, rice workers stooping in a sea of emerald, market vendors grinning behind stacks of fruit, bright yellow incense sticks drying at the roadside, flocks of storks circling over a sanctuary at dusk, locals scampering over monkey bridges or rowing boats on the delta’s maze of channels.

The Mekong Delta is a destination like no other. Innumerable rivers, canals, tributaries, and rivulets overflow with fish, and the rich alluvial soil helps produce an abundance of rice, fruit, and vegetables. Lush tropical orchards, floating markets, quaint towns, delicious food,emerald-green rice paddies, and lazy brown rivers and canals add to the photogenic wonder of the place. It’s a land touched by ancient and modern cultures, from the Funanese to the Khmer, Cham and Vietnamese.
The northern delta, with its fruit farms and rice fields, is the most accessible from Ho Chi Minh City, with day trips possible to My Tho and Vinh Long. The south-central delta encompasses the Ca Mau Peninsula, with just into the sea from Soc Trang. Can Tho is a major center, a pleasant town with just enough tourist infrastructure for a comfortable stay.
In the Mekong’s southern section, steamy mangrove swamps and thick palm forests thrive on the flat, flooded delta creating a heaven for water birds including some rare species.
