If you are looking for a trip to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, breathe fresh air, and slow down amid peaceful nature, a garden and river delta experience is the perfect choice.
In the rural villages of the Mekong Delta, the journey is not just about sightseeing, but about “living like a local” – where you can make traditional cakes with your own hands, ride bicycles along coconut-shaded village roads, enjoy a refreshing river bath like in childhood, and immerse yourself in the soulful Đờn ca tài tử music typical of Southern Vietnam.
🌿 Making Traditional Cakes – The Taste of Home
You will participate in creating traditional cakes such as bánh xèo or bánh lá, from mixing the batter and preparing the filling to cooking the cakes to fragrant perfection. Each cake tells a story of local culture, showcasing the skillful hands and warm hospitality of the Mekong Delta people.
🚲 Cycling Through Fruit Gardens
Winding paths shaded by rows of coconut trees and heavy-fruited orchards are the perfect routes for a leisurely bike ride, allowing you to take in the simple and friendly village life. Gentle smiles and warm greetings from locals will make you feel as if you’ve returned to your own countryside home.
🏞️ River Bathing – A Return to Childhood
What could be more delightful than immersing yourself in the cool waters of a countryside river, a place filled with memories spanning generations? Swimming and playing amid nature offers a sense of freedom and refreshment that’s hard to find in the city.
🎶 Đờn Ca Tài Tử by Oil Lamp
As evening falls, in the simple setting with a cup of tea and a piece of traditional cake, the gentle, soulful melodies of Đờn ca tài tử by oil lamp fill the air, touching the hearts of listeners. It’s not just music—it’s the spirit of the countryside, carefully preserved through the years.
