MEKONG DELTA
The Mekong Delta is the
southernmost region of Viet Nam, comprising one city and 12 provinces. The
Delta is formed by a huge amount of silt and has been extended together with
the sea level rise over the years. The Mekong Delta is famous for its complex
network of rivers and canals, immense orchards, abundant farming products and
open-hearted, generous and honest people. The region has a number of national
parks, bird sanctuaries with countless rare species of birds, animals and
plants. This region is home to many traditional folk festivals with art types
typical of river areas such as Cai Luong, singing duets and dances of the Khmer
people.
