Riverside destinations have a unique allure that combines natural beauty, cultural richness, and a sense of tranquility.

Travelers can immerse themselves in local traditions, enjoy scenic boat rides, or simply unwind by the water's edge.

Known as the "Coconut Kingdom," Ben Tre is a riverside haven in the Mekong Delta. The Ham Luong River winds through lush coconut groves, offering visitors a chance to explore the region's natural beauty. Take a boat ride through tranquil canals, visit local workshops producing coconut-based products, or enjoy fresh tropical fruits at riverside markets to enjoy the charm of Vietnam's countryside.
Known as the "City of a Thousand Rivers," Banjarmasin is a vibrant hub of waterways. Its floating markets are a must-see, where vendors sell fresh produce and local goods from their boats. Take a river cruise to explore the unique stilt houses and experience the lively river culture.
This quaint riverside town along the Mekong River is a hidden gem. Known for its wooden houses and laid-back vibe, Chiang Khan is perfect for a slow-paced getaway. Rent a bike to explore the town, visit the morning market, or simply relax by the river with a cup of local coffee.
