Description
Begin your tour at Coco Happy Farm, a family-run farmstay located on a 3-hectare coconut farm in Luong Hoa Village, Giong Trom District, Ben Tre Province, Vietnam. Explore coconut gardens, seasonal fruit trees, and meet farm animals including rabbits, goats, and cattle. Depending on the season, harvest fresh coconuts or pick tropical fruits directly from the garden.
Cycle along quiet village roads with very little traffic and pass through coconut plantations, canals, rice fields, and local communities. Along the way, visit My Long Market, a traditional local market where residents buy and sell fresh produce, fish, meat, and household goods.
Visit a traditional coconut-processing area and observe local workers manually removing coconut husks, splitting coconut shells, extracting coconut meat, and preparing products for local trade and export. This provides a rare insight into the coconut industry that has shaped the economy and culture of Ben Tre for generations.
Stop at Phuoc Long Ancient Pagoda, a peaceful Buddhist temple with more than 250 years of history and an important spiritual landmark for local residents.
