Tra Su Cajuput Forest in An Giang Province, around ten kilometers from the Vietnam-Cambodia border, is one of the most popular tourist sites in the Mekong Delta.

Covering 845 hectares in the center and 643 hectares in peripheries, the forest is a national reserve and home to numerous types of fauna and flora in Van Giao Commune, Tinh Bien District. It is home to more than 70 bird species, many of which are rare and listed in the Red Book of highly endangered species.

The forest was neglected for a long time before 2005 when efforts started to develop the forest for tourism. However, it still keeps the primitiveness and gives tourists natural touches that they may never forget.
