Ninh Kieu Dock: More Than Just a Pier
Ninh Kieu Pier is located at Can Tho City, which lies along the largest rivers in Mekong Delta – Hau.
With a statue of Ho Chi Minh standing majestically at the dock, the place is considered a symbol of the city. When you think about it, Ninh Kieu dock has really nothing much to offer especially when compared to the bustling tourism in Ho Chi Minh City. But what it lacks in commercial tourism, it more than makes up for its natural, spectacular sights. Aside from being a pier, Ninh Kieu is also actually an embankment and park.
Thus, the place is abuzz with people and excitement day in and out.Morning activities at the dock include sightseeing around Mekong Delta, exercise, sports, and a trip to the floating market. Boats are available all throughout the pier which visitors can rent. At night, food stalls position themselves at the dock selling all kinds of Vietnamese foods which are a must-try for both tourists and locals alike.
Tables and chairs are also available so that customers can enjoy their food with the Mekong Delta River and the lights at Can Tho Bridge as their breathtaking view.For history lovers, a Can Tho antique market can also be found at the pier. And to have something to remember themselves by, souvenirs are sold so that visitors will always have a wonderful memory of Ninh Kieu dock.
