Mekong Delta
Filed under: add to del.icio.us
The Mekong Delta is the region in Southeast Vietnam where the Mekong River approaches and empties into the South China Sea through a network of distributaries. Crisscrossed by many channels and canals, it is an area of extremely fertile farmlands and one of the greatest rice-growing areas in Asia. It is a densely populated region that was the scene of heavy fighting during the Vietnam War. What major city lies just east of the Mekong Delta?
