Saigon Secrets : The Mekong Delta
December 10th, 2007 by Nick Tay
Over the weekend, See Yau, Fang, Sara and I took on a day trip to the Mekong delta, the cost USD10 per person, purchased at Sinh Cafe. They brought us on a 3 hour bus ride, where we then got onto boats and visited the Mekong Delta’s Floating market and then ate a simple lunch on an Island on the Mekong River. We visited a Rice Paper Factory, A Coconut Candy Factory and then visited a local town. It was pretty worth the money we paid, though I was not particularly impressed with the floating market. The trip gave us a glimsp of how local’s live on the Mekong Delta, which is a very humble and simple life.
On this day in History..
