Thai Binh Province is located in the southeast of the Red River in northern Vietnam. The province is among the few places in northern Vietnam where the traditional culture of the Red River Delta is best preserved.
Geography
The terrain of Thai Binh is basically flat as it is mostly created by river basins. There are several rivers crisscrossing the province: the Red River, Tra Ly, Diem Ho, Luoc, Kien Giang…
The two biggest rivers in Vietnam flow past Thai Binh creating the natural boundary of the province: The Thai Binh River to the north and the Red River to the south. These two rivers flow in the direction from northwest to southeast. Most major rivers within the province flow in this direction discharging the water into the East Vietnam Sea.
Thanks to the geography that the traditional economic activities in Thai Binh involve either agriculture or the sea. Thai Binh is where several-century-long traditions which are typical of the Red River Delta are preserved. The daily lifestyle in Thai Binh still reflects that of centuries ago.
But the province is not visited much by the travellers to Vietnam. Some travellers will only pass through the province on the way between Ha Long Bay or Hai Phong City and Ninh Binh. It is possible that there are several high-profile tourist attractions in neighboring provinces which overshadow those in Thai Binh. But for this very reason, adventure travelers may have great experiences venturing through the province.
