Sa Dec Flower Village

Sa Dec Flower Village is a century-old horticultural area in Tan Quy Dong, Sa Dec City, Dong Thap Province, in the Mekong Delta of southern Vietnam. Covering about 500 hectares along the Tien River, it is one of Vietnam's largest flower cultivation centers with thousands of varieties of flowers and ornamental plants. Established in the early 20th century, it is especially notable for supplying flowers nationwide during the Lunar New Year (Tet) season.

Visitors can expect extensive fields and raised beds of seasonal flowers and ornamental plants grown on river silt, with many gardens elevated on bamboo frames above water. The village has narrow paths, canals, and small bridges between family-run nurseries. Visitors can walk or cycle between gardens, view roses, chrysanthemums, marigolds and cactus collections, take boat rides along canals, photograph colorful displays, and purchase potted plants directly from growers.

Sa Dec Flower Village was established in the early 20th century in Tan Quy Dong along the Tien River. Initially a small area of ornamental plant cultivation, it expanded over more than 100 years to become a major horticultural center of southern Vietnam, traditionally supplying flowers for the Mekong Delta and nationwide markets.

The village is a center of Mekong Delta horticultural culture and a major supplier of flowers for Tet (Lunar New Year), when Vietnamese families decorate homes with fresh flowers. It reflects the river-based agricultural lifestyle of Dong Thap and preserves traditional flower-growing techniques passed through generations.
