The best time to see them is from August to November every year. It’s when local produce is abundant and the scenery also becomes more lively and beautiful. There are tours where you can be on a boat (or ride a boat yourself) while going fishing and collecting flowers and seeds with locals to cook delicious and unique delicacies. Sure that you can only find these things in Dong Thap province.
