Hậu Giang, Provincial administrative center in Mekong Delta, Vietnam.

Hậu Giang Province spans 1,622 square kilometers of fertile delta land, featuring an intricate network of waterways and agricultural fields across eight districts.

The province emerged in 2004 when authorities restructured the former Cần Thơ province, establishing Hậu Giang with Vị Thanh as its capital city.

The population includes Vietnamese, Khmer, Hoa, and Chăm communities, each maintaining their traditions through local festivals and craft industries.

National Highway 61 connects Vị Thanh to major urban centers, while an industrial zone covering 902 hectares supports economic development.

Environmental projections indicate that 80 percent of the province faces submersion risks from a half-meter rise in sea levels.
