Gia Viễn

Gia Viễn is a rural district in Ninh Bình with flat terrain dominated by rice paddies and water surfaces spread across the landscape. The area sits in the fertile Red River Delta region, where farming and fish farming shape the surroundings.

The area developed over centuries as a farming region and kept its importance as a rice-producing hub under different rulers. This farming role shaped the settlements and local society throughout time.

The area maintains traditional ways through seasonal festivals tied to the farming calendar and religious practices at local temples that shape community life.

The main town of Me offers basic services and connects to other parts of the province. Visitors can find accommodation and food there before exploring the surrounding farmland and waterways.

The area blends rice farming with fish farming in the flat waters of the delta. This dual use of land makes it a notable example of delta agriculture across Vietnam.
