IN THE HEART OF THE MEKONG DELTA

A vital plain

Synopsis

Formed by the muddy deposits carried by one of the biggest river in the world, the Mekong delta is characterized by its extraordinary fertility. Here Nature is overwhelming and the vegetation exuberant.

Its 9 branches delineate a vast and extremely fertile plain crossed by a dense network of canals plied by legions of boats.

This vast area known as the Vietnam rice bowl has been good to Man and animals alike. Indeed, despite its agricultural development, the Mekong delta has a very important and vibrant biodiversity.
