Throngs of holiday-makers from HCM City are flocking to the gardens in Lai Vung to witness the ripening season and take photos while spending a day picking fruit.
Travellers are advised to drop by the orchards by the 20th of the 12th lunar month, which falls on February 5 this year, as local farmers will start picking fruit for sale during the peak Tet (Lunar New Year) season.
From HCM City, travellers can take a bus to Dong Thap Province at tour operators’ offices on Pham Ngu Lao, De Tham and Bui Vien streets in District 1 or at a bus station on Le Hong Phong Street in District 10.
