Hòn Đất, Rural district in Kiên Giang, Vietnam.

Located in the Mekong Delta region at 2 meters above sea level, Hòn Đất district spans across 906 square kilometers of agricultural land.

The district emerged from the administrative divisions established in 1774 when Lord Nguyễn Phúc Khoát organized the regional governance structure of southern Vietnam.

The district represents a mix of Kinh, Khmer, Hoa, and Chăm communities, each maintaining their traditions within the agricultural setting of Kiên Giang province.

Visitors can reach Hòn Đất through local transportation networks from Rạch Giá city, with the best travel period during the three-month dry season.

The district maintains 112,440 residents across eight commune-level subdivisions, contributing to the Mekong Delta's agricultural production at near sea level.
