Exploring water lifestyle of Mekong Delta When the conversation is about the Mekong Delta, people immediately think of tropical rivers, interlacing canals, immense rice fields and the floating homes of some of the residents. Once stepping into An Giang province’s Chau Doc town, tourists can not only visit famous sites such as Sam Mountain, Chua Xu Lady Pagoda or Thoai Ngoc Hau Temple but can take a cruise to the village to learn more about the floating life of the locals.
