Vĩnh Long (literally "eternal dragon") is a city in Vietnam. It is the capital of the Vĩnh Long Province. Vĩnh Long is on the Co Chien river, which branches out from the Mekong at the narrows of My Thuan about ten km upstream from Vinh Long, only to meet it later downstream. A number of canals run through Vĩnh Long, as well as the islands, with with tall pedestrian/motorcycle bridges crossing them. Much transportation takes place by boat, so that parts of the town become unreachable at low tide. A temple of literature is at the end of a old wet market along the canal Lavoo Nu. Vinh Long is about two hours from the large town of Can Tho in the adjacent Hau Giang Province, and about three hours from Saigon.

My fingers are crossed. In fact, so are my eyes, legs, arms and toes!
