Top 3 Cities in Mekong Delta, Vietnam: Cần Thơ, Mỹ Tho & Rạch Giá HD

The epicentre of the Mekong Delta, Can Tho is the largest city in the region and feels like a metropolis after a few days exploring the backwaters. As the political, economic, cultural and transportation centre of the Mekong Delta, it’s a buzzing town with a lively waterfront lined with sculpted gardens, an appealing blend of narrow backstreets and wide boulevards, and perhaps the greatest concentration of foreigners in the delta. It is also the perfect base for nearby floating markets, the major draw for tourists who come here to boat along the many canals and rivers leading out of town.---Gateway to the Mekong Delta, My Tho is the capital of Tien Giang province and an important market town – although for the famous floating markets, you’ll need to continue on to Can Tho.My Tho's proximity to HCMC means it's a popular day-trip destination for a taste of river life: a flotilla of boats tour the local islands and their cottage industries daily, though many bypass the town itself. The riverfront makes for a pleasant stroll and the town, including the lively market (Ð Trung Trac), is easily explored on foot.My Tho was founded in the 1680s by Chinese refugees fleeing Taiwan after the fall of the Southern Ming dynasty. The economy is based on tourism, fishing and the cultivation of rice, coconuts, bananas, mangoes, longans and citrus fruit.—A thriving port on the Gulf of Thailand, Rach Gia's population includes significant numbers of both ethnic Chinese and ethnic Khmers, and the lively waterfront and bustling backstreets are worth a stroll.With its easy access to the sea and the proximity of Cambodia and Thailand, fishing, agriculture and smuggling are profitable trades in this province. The area was once famous for supplying the large feathers used to make ceremonial fans for the Imperial Court.If you're in town for longer than it takes to catch a boat to Phu Quoc Island, there are a couple of sights worth a quick whizz through – a temple dedicated to local icon Nguyen Trung Truc, an 1860s resistance leader, and a museum housed in an ornate French colonial–era building displaying some Oc-Eo artefacts.www.lonelyplanet.com/vietnam/mekong-delta/rach-gia#CanTho #MyTho #RachGia #TienGiang #KienGiang #Vietnam #MekongDelta ———————————————————————For more videos please visit: Vietnam: bit.ly/VietnamTravelVideosNew Zealand: bit.ly/NewZealandTravelGuide Ecuador: bit.ly/EcuadorTravelGuide Drone Videos: bit.ly/DJISparkDroneFootageOthers: bit.ly/iTravelTube———————————————————————Thanks for watching!
