 On
approaching Vietnam after a length of over 4,100 km, the Mekong
river is divided into eight branches before emptying up in
the East Sea, making the southern part of Vietnam a very fertile
delta. The delta is the main rice-producing area of the country.
Just a short distance from Ho Chi Minh City, paddy fields
can be seen to unfurl along either side of the national highway.
When the harvesting days come, farmers gather in their fields
to reap their crops. Armloads of ripe rice straw are collected
for threshing close to the highway. Thanks to its nature-endowed
fertility, the Mekong Delta also produces fish, coconut and
a variety of tropical fruits. Under a scorching summer sun
it will be a perfect idea for you to make a ride by motorboat
on a canal in the shade of coconut and palm trees, sampling
fruits freshly plucked from an orchard nearby. The experience
will certainly be unforgettable.
