Bạc Liêu, Provincial city in Mekong Delta, Vietnam
Located 195 kilometers northeast of Ho Chi Minh City, Bac Lieu stands as the administrative center of its province with 156,110 residents recorded in 2019.
The area changed from its former name Vinh Loi and emerged as a religious center for the Hoa Hao movement during the 1950s under Huynh Phu So.
The name Bac Lieu derives from the Chinese pronunciation of the Khmer name Pol Leav, reflecting the multicultural influences in this Vietnamese region.
