Chau Doc is an attractive, busy place with several interesting attractions.

The Bassac River flows through the town and is a border crossing for river borne traffic. A trip across the river takes you to several floating fish farms and villages where families live in floating houses with metal fish cages beneath the floor. The fish grow quickly in their natural river environment and provide a handy source of food for the household.

There's a large market selling local products and commodities. Deep in the market, the Taoist Quan Cong Temple is a rewarding visit.

Visit temples and mosques which vary in style according to the ethnic community to which they belong.

Mountain Sam is a tourism destination in its own right - a holy mountain, full of caves, shrines and temples. The most significant in religious terms is the Ba Chua Xu, dedicated to the "Lady of the Region". Her festival is held in the spring attracting huge numbers of devotees.
