Sited at the confluence of the Can Tho and Hau Giang rivers, CAN THO is the delta's biggest city (pop. 1,900,000), a major trading centre and transport interchange. However, abundant rice fields are never far away, and boat trips along the canals and rivers, through memorable floating markets, are undoubtedly Can Tho's star attraction. Broad Hoa Binh is the city's backbone, and the site of the Ho Chi Minh Museum (Tues, Thurs & Fri 8–11am & 2–4.30pm, Sat & Sun 8–11am & 7–9pm), where yet more photographs and army ordnance are displayed. Can Tho was the last city to succumb to the North Vietnamese Army, a day after the fall of Saigon, on May 1, 1975 – the date that has come to represent the absolute reunification of the country. The recently opened, impressive Can Tho Museum, 1 Hoa Binh (Tues, Wed & Thurs 8–11am & 2–5pm, Sat & Sun 8–11am & 6.30–9pm), presents "the history of the resistance against foreign aggression of Can Tho people", as well as local economic and social achievements.
