If in the past most tourists knew about Chau Doc because of Ba Chua Xu Temple, a sacred pilgrimage site, today, Chau Doc is also known for many other wonderful things. From the center of Chau Doc city, up the Hau river, visitors will see Chau Doc floating fish village - one of the very special Chau Doc tourist destinations. Located west of Chau Doc city center about 3km along the river in the direction of the Mekong Delta watershed, An Phu district. Floating houses and fish rafts nestled close together form a "village", stretching several kilometers. If you go towards Chau Phu district, the floating villages seem more crowded and last longer. The most crowded are the floating houses gathered in the river section of Tan Chau district, the village stretches nearly 10km. The floating raft village on Chau Doc River is a freshwater fish raft village established in the 60s of the last century. At first, there were only a few floating rafts raising fish in a natural way, no need for feeding because of the good water source. However, from the 70s onwards, due to high economic benefits, the number of fish rafts increased significantly and gradually became a key economic point of An Giang. The highlight is that from 1990 to 2005, the areas of Chau Phu, Phu Tan, Cho Moi, and Vinh Nguon had over 2,000 fish cages with an average annual harvest of over 20,000 tons/year. Most of the fish raised in floating rafts in these regions are catfish varieties such as pangasius and basa fish, mainly for export to Western European and North American markets. In recent years, due to climate change, the Mekong River has dried up. In addition, the water source is increasingly polluted, leading to loss of income from fish raised in raft houses, and some households are left empty-handed and bankrupt. That's why the number of fish cages is decreasing day by day. Now, when basa and pangasius fish are no longer popular in the market, people have switched to raising all kinds of fish for meat such as: catfish, tilapia, silver carp, grouper, plaice... Thanks to the prices of The variety of meat fish is increasing, so raft fish farmers in Chau Doc are making a living, bringing high economic efficiency to help many families have a well-off life.
