Vịnh Long is a peaceful riverside city and the capital of Vĩnh Long Province, nestled between the Tien and Hau rivers. The city is a major agricultural hub, famous for its historic temples, bustling riverfront promenade, and the iconic orange-hued brick kiln factories along the Co Chien River (Mang Thit). It offers a highly authentic, industrious yet charming glimpse of delta life.
Photograph the spectacular red-brick kilns of Mang Thit, visit Van Thanh Mieu Temple, and explore the riverfront.
