Must-see attractions
Binh Thuy Ancient House
Can Tho
　　Dating from 1870, the Binh Thuy house was built by wealthy merchant Duong Chan Ky and extensively renovated in the French colonial style in the early 20th century. The interior of the house is very much original, with ornate hand-painted floor tiles, elaborate decorative wood carvings and huge floor-to-ceiling display...
Ong Temple
Can Tho

Munireangsey Pagoda
Can Tho
　　This small golden pagoda was originally built in 1946 to serve Can Tho’s Khmer community. The ornamentation is typical of Khmer Theravada Buddhist pagodas, with none of the multiple Bodhisattvas and Taoist spirits common in Vietnamese Mahayana pagodas. ...
Pitu Kohsa Rangsay Pagoda
Can Tho
　　Trying to hide down a quiet backstreet, but gloriously gilded in gold, this rare three-level Khmer Theravada Buddhist pagoda from 1948 contrasts sharply against the adjacent grey buildings. The carved, detailed wall patterns, painted columns, huge Buddha statue and city views from the balcony are all impressive. Its charitable pursuits...
