Cai Be Floating Market

While the Mekong Delta is most famous for its exotic wildlife, we also cannot help mentioning the hectic floating markets there. There are many floating markets in the region but the most well-known must be Cai Be in Tien Giang Province. It is also the biggest wholesale market in the whole Mekong Delta.

The attractiveness of Cai Be Floating Market is so great that every Mekong Delta Cruise has to go past it once so travelers can immerse themselves in the busy daily life of the locals. From afar, Cai Be looms behind the coconut trees but visitors can already hear the voices of hundreds of sellers and buyers added with the “soundtracks” of the boats’ engine. In the nearby area, there is an abundance of rivers, canals gardens and rice fields. Waterways is the only mean of transportation in Cai Be.
