Day 2: Can Tho – Cai Rang Floating Market – Chau Doc
Start from the early morning, leave Can Tho to make our way up the river to the Cai Rang floating market, which is about 6km away. It's one of the most photogenic spots you'll find in Vietnam. If anything, a boat trip is a great experience to have a somewhat more personal experience on the market because it really is a memorable and fascinating adventure. You will see bustling activities along the riverbanks as well as how they transport passengers and goods by the waterway. Arrive in Cai Rang floating market, you will notice an interesting "way of advertising" by hanging products that they offer on a pole. To understand more about local lifestyle, keep on cruising into smaller canal. Disembark to visit Binh Thuy Temple and the 135 year Binh Thuy House.
