Arriving to Tay Do (Capital of Vietnamese Southwest), tourists may choose to experience Cai Rang Floating Market and Ninh Kieu Quay and other fascinating places. Yet, there is a must-see destination for them : over-100-year-old Binh Thuy house that was used as the context for many famous movies.

The scenery is very peaceful. Everyone seems to have a lot of work to care for their garden, so few people linger to look at the scenery like us. so desolate that few people loitering on the road. After breakfast with eggs, coffee, tea and a cup of hot fragrant cocoa, we rent bicycles to explore the village and go to the second homestay – Mr. Ba Xinh’s house. 
Many visitors to Can Tho City, often visit Cai Rang floating markets, Phong Dien and return to air-conditioned hotels in town, Can Tho City, commonly known as The Capital City of the West. Usually they spend a night in a rather dry and cool bedroom there without knowing about an exciting alternative available for them: home stay tourism, where visitors stay, live and work together with the locals to learn more about the home culture here. It is fascinating to have a walk around the isles and live in the countryside typical of the rural southern delta. 
Phong Dien District is famous for its floating market, luxuriant orchards laden with all kinds of fruit, such as Ha Chau mulberries, oranges, tangerines, star apples, mangosteens, green apples, guavas ....
