Hi all Hivers,
Nomally a market or supermarket will be operated at a fixed location in a residential area. But very special, when coming to Can Tho, a land famous for canals and rivers, you will be surprised with the market on the river. Cai Rang floating market is very busy and crowded. This place attracts a lot of visitors every year
Cai Rang Floating Market is located on the Hau River, 6km from Can Tho City and 120km from Ho Chi Minh City. From HCMC, I can easily travel here by car
Cai Rang floating market opens from 6 am to 8 am. People sell all kinds of fruits, vegetables and typical Can Tho dishes such as vermicelli, bread, coffee. You should definitely try durian here because it is very delicious and special. The prices at the floating market are very different, you should pay carefully to not be over-purchased
The salesman displayed the products on his boat and began to sell in his sweet voice. There are two types of boats: motor-powered boats and manual rowing boats. I booked 2 seats on a motorboat to move on the floating market with a ticket price of 350,000 VND. Time you can explore all Cai Rang floating market lasts 2 hours

(Seller cooked directly on his boat. This dish was very delicious)
After exploring Cai Rang floating market, I came to a very large orchard 2 km away. There are rambutan trees, durian trees and lots of oranges trees. When I arrived, rambutan was in the ripe season so I could freely pick it from the tree to eat
(Rambutan were very sweet when directly picked from that tree)
Can Tho belongs to the Western region characterized by rivers and canals. Experience a day here, while picking fruit directly from the tree and grilling fish directly from the river. A close and friendly life with beautiful nature
The people here are very simple and friendly. They gave me detailed instructions in picking the fruit and arranging the food. I had an unforgettable experience in Can Tho last summer
Thank you for reading my post. Hope you a day full of joy!
