Bến Tre is a province in the Mekong Delta that is recognised as the land of coconuts.

The province features sand dunes embellished with rice fields, fruit plant gardens, and various rivers, streams, canals and creeks.

The natural landscape of Bến Tre is comprised of lush, verdant coconut plantations and orchards throughout the year. Travellers to the Châu Thành, Chợ Lách, and other neighbouring places can unwind, relax, and enjoy fresh fruit in ecological gardens that have long flourished as a tourist attraction.
