Following Vietnam’s administrative restructuring, Hau Giang and Soc Trang provinces have merged into Can Tho City, with Can Tho as the administrative center. District-level units are now wards or communes, improving access to Hau Giang’s accommodations through sustainable infrastructure like cycling paths and a VND500 billion flood control project. This enhances your stay with easy connections to attractions like Lung Ngoc Hoang Nature Reserve.

Located 240 km southwest of Ho Chi Minh City, Hau Giang spans 1,609 km² of wetlands and 2,300 km of canals. Bordered by Vinh Long, Bac Lieu, and Kien Giang, it features a tropical monsoon climate with a dry season (December–April, 25–34°C or 77–93.2°F) and a rainy season (May–November, 22–30°C or 71.6–86°F), with peak rainfall in August–October (100–400 mm). Its proximity to Can Tho International Airport (50 km) and eco-friendly transport options make Hau Giang a convenient base for exploring the Mekong Delta.

The dry season (December–April) is ideal for staying in Hau Giang, with warm, sunny weather perfect for exploring markets and canals. Accommodations are in high demand, especially during Tet (January–February), so book early. The rainy season (May–November) offers cooler temperatures, 20–30% discounts, and lush scenery, with the Khmer Ok Om Bok Festival (October–November) adding cultural vibrancy. Indoor amenities like cooking classes shine during showers. Check AccuWeather for May–October updates.

Tip: Reserve accommodations and tours 3–5 weeks in advance for December–April. October provides mild weather and festival experiences with fewer crowds.
