Vinh Long Province is located to the heart of the Mekong Delta in southern Vietnam. The provincial capital, the eponymous city of Vinh Long, is 150km southwest of Ho Chi Minh City via Route 1A and 130km from Ho Chi Minh City via the new expressway Trung Luong – My Thuan.
The Mekong River enters Vietnam via two major branches:
- The Tien River (Upper Branch of the Mekong River in Vietnam) starts from Tan Chau (Hong Ngu District, Dong Thap Province);
- The Hau River (Lower Branch of the Mekong River in Vietnam) starts from Chau Doc City (An Giang Province).
Both branches of the Mekong River in Vietnam run along the northwest-southeast axis and they create an island in between, from northwest to southeast: Dong Thap, Vinh Long and Tra Vinh.
