Mekong Delta

Delta of the Mekong River at its mouth in southern Vietnam

The Mekong Delta, also known as the South-western Region (Vietnamese: Tây Nam Bộ) or the Western Region (Vietnamese: Miền Tây), is the region in southwestern Vietnam where the Mekong River approaches and empties into the sea through a network of distributaries. The Mekong delta region encompasses a large portion of south-western Vietnam, of an area of over 40,500 km² (15,600 sq mi). The size of the area covered by water depends on the season.
