Minh Hoa Fishing Village. This unique floating community, located about 55 km from the city of Tay Ninh, is a testament to human ingenuity. The village is home to about 30 unique makeshift houses built on floating rafts, ingenious structures made from wood planks, bamboo, and buoyant barrels. The fishermen here have also developed an artful fishing technique: they arrange their nets on two extended bamboo arms at the front of their boats, a distinctive method that, from above, resembles the elegant tail of a fish.
