The Mekong Delta is the richest agricultural region in Vietnam and it is usually called “the rice bowl of Vietnam”. Since ancient times, water on the delta has been controlled by a useful network of canals. Rice, sugarcane, fruit and coconuts are the main crops. The delta people consequently enjoy a rather comfortable standard of living. You can be amazed by the peaceful hours sampaning the canals, the bustling activities of the delta’s typical floating market, the Khmer people culture… But it may be the warm hospitality of the local people that you will remember most.
