Dong Thap, the “Lotus Kingdom” of Vietnam’s Mekong Delta, blooms with endless pink lotus fields and serene waterways. Glide through Tram Chim National Park, home to the rare red‑headed crane, and climb the historic Thap Muoi (Plain of Reeds) tower. Visit the charming flower village of Sa Dec, where Monsieur Huynh Thuy Le’s ancient house inspired Marguerite Duras’ novel The Lover. With floating fish rafts, Cao Lanh’s markets, and gentle canal life, Dong Thap offers an authentic, poetic Delta experience.
