CAI RANG FLOATING MARKET - Can Tho

Getting There - If you want to ride a motorbike, find your way to National Highway 1A, then follow the direction of My Thuan Bridge, turn left in the direction to Can Tho. There are many signposts on the road, so you are not afraid to get lost. Riding a motorbike will take you about 4 hours by car.
Attractions - Cai Rang Floating Market meets quite early from about 4, 5 am, the boats have started to arrive at the market, so you need to go a little early, calculate enough time to be able to go to the market at the busiest time.
There are many reasons why I want to visit Cai Rang floating market again after my missed visit last year. First, the bustling scenes here made me nostalgic.
Next are the boats full of goods. Sounds weird right? Like this, normally you can only see people gathering in markets and selling goods on land, but selling goods on boats like this is indeed very rare.
Each boat will sell a different item, from delicious fresh fruits of the West to household items needed for daily life. The owners of the boats will hang the items they sell on a pole - the people here call it a "bump" tree so that buyers can easily recognize it.
And yet, the dishes are also sold on the boat. I will never forget the feeling of sitting on a small boat swaying on the water and enjoying a bowl of Western-style vermicelli noodles (priced at 15,000 VND). This can be said to be the most interesting memory of my trip.
