An Phú, Rural district in An Giang Province, Vietnam.

The An Phú district stretches across 226 square kilometers of the Mekong Delta region, featuring rice fields and waterways at 6 meters above sea level.

The district gained official recognition on August 6, 1957, following its separation from Long Châu Tiền and subsequent merger with parts of Tân Châu district.

The district population includes Vietnamese Kinh majority and 12,000 Cham people distributed across five villages, maintaining their distinct traditions and festivals.

During monsoon season, residents adapt to flooded conditions by constructing houses on stilts and using boats as their primary mode of transportation.

The district organizes an annual Flood Season Festival when agricultural fields transform into fishing grounds, creating a seasonal shift in local activities.
