Situated on Chu Van An street in Tra Vinh city, the Huynh Kha eco-tourism site sprawls over 57,000 sq.m and treats visitors to food, coffee, an eco-restaurant accommodating over 1,000 guests, an integrated area with fresh and cool air, water-based recreational activities and folk games.

Apart from them, Tra Vinh has two more typical destinations in the region, including a temple dedicated to President Ho Chi Minh in Long Duc commune, Tra Vinh city and Con Chim islet – a community-based tourism site in Hoa Minh commune, Chau Thanh district.

Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Le Thanh Binh said the province holds huge tourism potential, particularly in cultural and spiritual tourism, which sets it apart from other localities in the Mekong Delta. With a long history of coexistence among the three ethnic groups of Kinh, Khmer and Hoa, the province has developed a multi-ethnic culture with numerous traditional festivals taking place throughout the year, attracting tens of thousands of visitors.

Additionally, the cultural fusion and evolution have created a distinctive culinary culture in the province, offering tourists a chance to experience famous local specialties and delicacies. Tra Vinh also boasts several islets and riverine and coastal areas with fruit orchards, providing advantages for the development of beach tourism, eco-tourism in rivers and canals, and resort tourism, he said./.
