    The markets are fascinating to browse around. I generally had no idea what the produce was on sale but did manage to sample some unusual fruits.

    The women rowing the boats are amazingly strong & fit and quite entertaining as well! Once you get over the initial wobbly fear of capsizing, they will take you on an interesting trip to the Cham village where the kids will be keenly waiting to show you around (and obviously sell you stuff!!)

    This dusty contraption is the rice mill which is visited during the tour. Our british health & safety regulations seemed a world away as the chuntering machine churns out bagfuls of rice!

    This pair lived at one of the lunch stops during the trip. Not a very useful tip I know but felt I had to include the photo!

    This small Chinese pagoda is known for its rafters of figurines. Also of note are the lacquered columns and the huge incense coils inside.

    This was included in the tour instead of the stork farm, due to the bird flu risk. Hundreds of crocodiles are residing here although I'm assuming they are not there to meet a happy ending :o(

    You can hop on the back of a motorbike for a few thousand dong and they'll take you up to the top of the mountain to admire the view. If you choose to walk down, be prepared for a bit of leg ache the next day. plenty of people selling refreshments though on the steep return stair climb!

    After an enjoyable sightseeing in daytime, there are fewer more pleasant experiences than enjoying a delicious meal at Ninh Kieu floating restaurant. This is the time to really settle back and savor the local culture, Ninh Kieu boat restaurant will take you on a dinner cruise night from 8pm to 9 pm along the enchantion Hau river. You may take an elegant dining on board, settle down to enjoy Southern folk music or “ don ca tai tu Nam Bo”

    (a kind of music performance appeared in the early 20th century, of which the origin from folk in South Vietnam).

    The trip to Mekong offers a glimpse into the agrarian life of the vibrant Southern Delta region as you wind our way through the tributaries of the Mekong Delta. From the small boats, you are able to closely observe the daily rituals of river life and participate in the bustling commercial activities as you buy the fruits from the floating markets. Along the way, we will visit an orchard farm, handicraft village, and a land market with an abundance of colorful fresh fruits and vegetables.

    Founded in 1966 in Cantho and located in the heart of the Mekong Delta, Cantho University ( CTU) is the only state university of the MD. Since 1975, there have been several reorganizations of its administrative structure and curricula. Now, CTU offers undergraduate and graduate training as well as doing research and facilitating technology transfer to satisfy individual aspirations and to contribute to the socio-economical and cultural development of the region and the country. CTU is constantly expanding and strengthening. CTU is well-known for its out-reach programs serving communities throughout the delta, and works closely with provincial authorities, private and public enterprises, and farmers. This creates a better understanding of practical problems and enables CTU to focus teaching and research activities on the needs of the environment and the rapidly changing labor market.

    CTU is offering training leading to degrees-Bachelor, Master and Ph. D.- in various fields. According to the strategic plan for the first decade of the new millennium, the number of full-time students will be increased annually by more than 1,000. A comprehensive review has recently been carried out to allow any future growth on campus to be organized rationally.
