When it comes to this land, tourists thought that they were lost in a miniature "old town" in the heart of Europe. But Go Cong is a town embraced by the Mekong River to pour salty alluvial drops accumulating all year.

The tour started from the old Go Cong market. It was built in 1916 but still maintains trade with agricultural products of the neighboring areas. Although the government has built a new market nearby, the old one is still busy.

In addition, a long-standing historic building is located near the market was the Doc Phu Hai house. The work was built in 1860 and was the residence of Mrs. Tran Thi Sanh (wife of the national hero named Truong Dinh). After entering the temple to take refuge, Mrs. Sanh left home for her children. After that her granddaughter married Doc Phu Hai and lived in this house. This is the oldest one remaining in Go Cong market.
