Bang Lang Stork Garden

Tourists can take a bicycle tour with our local guides, or rent a motorbike, or take a bus from Can Tho to Long Xuyen and stop at Bang Lang bridge, then take a motorbike taxi to the Garden.

Bang Lang Stork Garden, a 1.3 hectare stork sanctuary, is a popular stop of international and domestic tourists coming to view thousands of storks. More than ten species of storks are residing here.

Visitors can see these birds returning home in late afternoon after the whole day seeking food from other places. There is a tall wooden viewing platform to view the birds. The scenery of thousands of storks flying around and gathering in the Garden is really exotic to visitors. On the way to the Stork Garden, tourists can visit interesting handicraft villages in Thot Not District. These villages are specific to the countryside with the system of rivers and canals in Mekong Delta. There are villages such as Di Tho lop village (Lop is a tool made of bamboo to catch fishes), Ba Rui cookstove (made of clay) village in Thoi Long commune – O Mon district, and Thom Rom net village in Thom Rom commune – Thot Not district.
