Can Tho City

Long known as the "Western Capital" - the capital of the Mekong Delta for over a hundred years, Can Tho is one of the most attractive destinations in the South. Can Tho is located in the center of the Mekong Delta, in the downstream region of the Mekong River. Despite its rapid economic development, the "Western Capital" still retains the distinctive cultural characteristics of the rivers and canals region. Can Tho is less affected by storms, with pleasant weather throughout the year, despite distinct rainy and dry seasons. The ideal time to visit Can Tho is in the summer from May to August, when fruit orchards are ready for harvest. September to November is the flood season, suitable for experiencing the rustic life of the people in the Western region and enjoying specialties only available during the flood season. From December to February of the Gregorian calendar is the pre-Tet season, Can Tho is adorned with colorful flowers. The modernity of the streets blends with the simple and rustic charm of the Western orchards, which are always lush with fruit trees all year round, making Can Tho a uniquely attractive tourist destination in this region.
