Mekong Delta – the longest river in Indochina – comes to Vietnam; it mysteriously splits into 9 branches spanning the vast plain of South West Vietnam. The Delta is often referred as “the rice bowl” of the South as it produces 3 harvests per year due to the rich soil generously given by Mother Nature, which is ideal for growing fruit, vegetables and flowers. The riverbanks are decorated with coconut palms, paddy-field and stilted houses.Let’s experience an unforgettable way of seeing the Mekong Delta to drive along the provincial roads on the Southern region of Vietnam through paddy-rice fields, pineapple plantations, orchard and small hamlets (one and a half hour of driving). Ben Tre is the best option for a day trip to the Mekong Delta from Saigon, since it is only around 2 hours away, from My Tho. However, this wonderful destination retains an authenticity which has been somewhat lessened in nearby My Tho.This picturesque and friendly Mekong Delta town has historically seen very few travelers, but the recent opening of a bridge connecting Ben Tre and My Tho has made it far easier for day trippers to visit from Saigon
