The Red River
Delta
The Red river Delta is a vast area of some 20,000 sq km,
accounted for around 7% the whole Vietnam ,
formed by the Red River merging with Thai
Binh River
in Northern Vietnam .
The number of provinces inside the Delta is 11 including Hanoi
Capital city, Vinh Phuc, Bac Ninh, Ha Nam, Hung Yen, Hai Duong, Hai Phong, Thai
Binh, Nam Dinh, Ninh Binh, and Quang Ninh in which there are no mountain or
hill in Thai Binh and Hung Yen provinces.
With the dense network of canals and rivers in the Delta
creates a good condition for water transportation. Dry season is from Oct till
April in coming year so the amount of water on the River is just around 20-30%
. The rainy season, May till the end of September, may cause flooding and land
slide. The Red river Delta is very fertile and
gives farmers two productive rice crops a year . The Land is also the cradle of
Viet culture dated back to 3000 years .
It is quite interesting to have a day trip around handcraft
and traditional villages here. In addition we can do home stay, cycling, having
farming activities with the locals, and making friendly interaction with them.
