Tra Su Cajuput Forest
Rừng tràm Trà Sư
The most beautiful cajuput wetland forest in the Mekong Delta, where small boats glide through waterways carpeted with bright green duckweed.
The Tra Su Cajuput Forest covers about 850 hectares. It is a seasonally flooded forest of cajuput trees, and the water surface is covered with green duckweed like a carpet. Visitors first take a speedboat into the forest, then switch to a rowed boat to glide through the forest waterways. You can see many waterbirds, including egrets and cormorants. At the end of the route are a bird-watching tower and wooden boardwalks several kilometers long. The flood season from September to November is the most beautiful time. Admission and boat fees total about several hundred thousand Vietnamese dong. It is about 25 km from Châu Đốc.
