Hong Ngu (Hồng Ngự in Vietnamese) is a popular Mekong River cruise port and a district-level (Class-3) town in Vietnam’s Dong Thap Province. Situated in the north with a convenient location to Cambodia, this district offers tourists a lot of things to do and see.
Bordering Preyveng Province (Cambodia) in the north, Hong Ngu District is one of some upstream places of the Tien River when flowing into Vietnam; therefore, this place comes so vibrant during the high-water season with many sampans and ships cruising its waterways. As a cruise port, it is also the vantage point to see the noticeable changes of scenery from dry arid landscape in Cambodia to lush green rice paddies in the Mekong Delta.
If you’re on a Mekong River Cruise holiday, it’s highly recommended to spend some time in Hong Ngu district. The waterfront town of Hong Ngu is a great place to admire the splendor of Mekong River and see the daily life of local people. There, you can choose to visit a lot of attractions, such as Hong Ngu Market, Food Market, Thien Quang Pagoda, or An Binh Temple. Meanwhile, the local island village of Hong Ngu is an unparalleled site to experience the authentic lifestyle of people in the South of Vietnam. After a sampan ride to the village, you can walk around and visit some local homes with your tour guide. The villagers are really friendly and welcoming, and most of them earn a living from producing traditional Khmer scarves, weaving and embroidering. This excursion is an excellent chance to be up close and personal with the culture and people of Southern Vietnam.
