Boulevard Delta Mekong Quay Quayside Region Tien Vietnam Waterfront Mytho
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling quayside of My Tho, a charming town located in the Tien Giang Province of the Mekong Delta region in Vietnam. Dating back to the 1910s, this image offers a glimpse into the rich history of this area, which was once a thriving hub for trade and commerce along the Mekong River. The quayside, lined with elegant colonial-style buildings, is filled with activity as people go about their daily business. Narrow sampans and larger boats are moored along the waterfront, their masts casting long shadows on the cobblestone street. Locals sell fresh produce from their carts, while others load and unload goods from the boats. My Tho, which means "beautiful homeland," was an important stopover for travelers and traders on the Mekong River. Its strategic location made it a melting pot of different cultures, with influences from China, France, and Vietnam evident in its architecture and cuisine. The Mekong Delta region, known as the "rice bowl" of Vietnam, is famous for its lush green rice paddies, intricate network of waterways, and vibrant markets. This photograph is a testament to the region's rich history and the enduring charm of its people and their way of life.
