The province is a gateway to Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) and other eastern provinces as well as those of the Mekong Delta through its system of 150 kilometres (93\u00a0mi) road, one expressway, four National Roads (1, 30, 50 and 60). The coastline is 32 kilometres (20\u00a0mi) long with thousands of coastal warp, which is an advantage for aquatic breeding such as crab and sea-based economic development.[2]Ti\u1ec1n Giang borders Long An province and HCMC to the north, \u0110\u1ed3ng Th\u00e1p province to the west, B\u1ebfn Tre and V\u0129nh Long province to the south, and the East Sea to the east. M\u1ef9 Tho City, acting the leading role of socioeconomic and politic center of Ti\u1ec1n Giang, is the major junction of education, culture and tourism for nearby provinces. The city is 70 kilometres (43\u00a0mi) away from Ho Chi Minh City to the south and 90 kilometres (56\u00a0mi) away from C\u1ea7n Th\u01a1 City to the east.[3]Table of Contents       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Geography[edit]Climate[edit]Administrative divisions[edit]Economy[edit]Tourism[edit]Notable people from Ti\u1ec1n Giang[edit]References[edit]External links[edit]Geography[edit]The climate here is clearly divided into two main seasons, namely wet season and dry season and the average temperature is about 27\u00a0\u00b0C, all of which help to create a diverse ecosystem. From the 17th century a lot of Vietnamese people migrated from Ngu Quang to Ti\u1ec1n Giang province to reclaim this deserted area, which was full of dangerous animals, turned it into vast rice fields and luxuriant orchards and built wealthy villages there. There are a variety of ecosystems such as those at sea, canals, mounds and \u0110\u1ed3ng Th\u00e1p M\u01b0\u1eddi depression, each of them has typical animals and plants, which creates a variety for not only landscape but also culture for this place. Tien Giang is also famous for the following specialties: fruits and my tho noodles. The special fruits that you need to try at least once when coming to Tien Giang are durian and blacksmith’s milk, in addition to jackfruit, rambutan, pineapple…[4]With a total area of 2,510.5 square kilometres (969.3\u00a0sq\u00a0mi), Ti\u1ec1n Giang stretches along the north of Ti\u1ec1n River for 120 kilometres (75\u00a0mi), accounting for about 6% of SKEZ, and 0.7 of the national area.[5] Overall, thanks to its geographic location, economic condition, road and waterway transportation, Ti\u1ec1n Giang province has various advantages in using natural resources, developing goods production, expanding consumption market for its products, reinforcing its ability of cooperation and exchange in terms of economics, culture and tourism with other provinces in the region, especially Ho Chi Minh City and the Southern Key Economic Zone.Ti\u1ec1n Giang province has flat terrain with a slope below 1%, and the altitude varying from 0\u20131.6 metres (0.0\u20135.2\u00a0ft) in comparison with the sea level.\u00a0The whole province area is in the lower section of Mekong River. Its current terrain surface and land was created by the accumulation of Mekong river silt during the development process of the modern delta in the marine regression period from the mid-Holocene (about 5,000 \u2013 4,500 years to the present), which is also called new silt. In general, because the land surface is new silt which is rich in cat dirt and organic matters; the altitude of topography surface is relatively low. Its force-bearing ability for construction is not high. Therefore, ground leveling need to be done and construction projects need to be reinforced. Deep layers are fairly rich in sand and have better geological characteristics for construction. However, the arrangement of layers is very complex and some layers with bad geological characteristics for construction mingle with good ones. Therefore, it is necessary to carefully study them before the construction of large scale or heavy load, etc. is carried out. The whole region does not have a clear slope direction but there are several zones whose terrain is lower or higher than the general terrain.[6]Climate[edit]Ti\u1ec1n Giang province is in the climate zone of Mekong Delta \u2013 the tropical monsoon climate zone whose temperature is high and stable all year round. It is clearly divided into two seasons: the rainy season is from May to November which is at the same time with Southwestern monsoon and the dry season is from December to April of the following year\u00a0 which is at the same time with Northeastern monsoon.[6]Administrative divisions[edit]Ti\u1ec1n Giang is subdivided into 11 district-level sub-divisions:They are further subdivided into seven commune-level towns (or townlets), 144 communes and 22 wards.

It is up to the province’s leadership and enterprises to make it possible for Ti\u1ec1n Giang to acquire geographical indications for fruits in the country and Southeast Asia, he said. The province has 73,000 ha of orchards, the largest in the country, which yield around 1.4 million tonnes of fruits a year. Besides hailing local authorities\u2019 efforts to help enterprises overcome difficulties and achieve socioeconomic growth, the PM also instructed them to promptly address issues that could hinder development, such as speeding up land acquisition for businesses. The Government would always assist the province with infrastructure development to help it achieve its socioeconomic targets and guarantee that the legal rights of enterprises and investors in the province are protected, Nguy\u1ec5n Xu\u00e2n Ph\u00fac said.[13]Secretary of the provincial Party Committee Nguy\u1ec5n V\u0103n Danh said the locality will pay attention to marine economic development based on green growth and biodiversity conservation. The province will focus on restructuring the marine economy, developing science-technology and marine human resources, protecting the environment and coping with climate change and rising sea levels, Danh, who is also Chairman of the provincial People’s Council said. It aims to reduce the number of inshore fishing vessels by 30 percent and establish a chain of connectivity from supplying materials to transportation of products, processing and sales. In addition, it will develop brackish water aquaculture by applying environmentally friendly technology.[14]According to Ti\u1ec1n Giang Industry and Trade Sector, the goal for 2016 is to focus on attracting investment by creating the favorable conditions for implementing well investment projects, and effectively employing existing facilities network of the sector. In addition, more efforts will be put on supporting and creating favorable condition as well as promptly alleviating difficulties for enterprises to boost provincial production and business. Alongside, restructure of the industry sector should be well done, focusing on developing industrial products with a competitive advantage, supporting industry, high technology industry and industrial products served for the development of agriculture and rural areas.[15]Tourism[edit]The Mekong Delta province of Ti\u1ec1n Giang has divided itself into three economic zones to create spillover effects on the tourism sector, said the province’s chairman, Le Van Huong, at the Culture, Sports and Tourism Festival 2019 there on January 11. In the western region of the province, the outlying district of C\u00e1i B\u00e8 has been regarded as a driving force, thanks to its \u0110\u00f4ng H\u00f2a Hi\u1ec7p ancient village festival. The central urban economic zone, according to Huong, is aimed at raising the quality of tourism services in Th\u1edbi S\u01a1n Islet of M\u1ef9 Tho City, together with the development of a pedestrian area along the Ti\u1ec1n River, and a night food market. Afterwards, the development of tourism in T\u00e2n Th\u00e0nh Beach of G\u00f2 C\u00f4ng \u0110\u00f4ng District will be associated with cultural relics in G\u00f2 C\u00f4ng Town and Ngang Islet of T\u00e2n Ph\u00fa \u0110\u00f4ng District, along with improvements in Truong Dinh Temple. The aim is to form a festival center of the zone. In 2019, the province targets 2.1 million tourists, including 850,000 foreigners, and 1.14 trillion VND in tourism revenue.[16]  According to VnExpress,[17] there are four unmissable places to visit in Ti\u1ec1n Giang province:The market is located in the area where the Ti\u1ec1n River borders three provinces: Ti\u1ec1n Giang, V\u0129nh Long and B\u1ebfn Tre.The snake farm is in B\u00ecnh \u0110\u1ee9c Commune, Ch\u00e2u Th\u00e0nh District, and is located about 9 kilometres (5.6\u00a0mi) west of M\u1ef9 Tho City.This is the largest Buddhist site in the province, built in the 19th century, and covering an area of two hectares with many large Buddha statues and beautiful gardens. The unique architecture of the temple is a combination of both Asian and European styles.The 1,200 hectare island is located in the lower section of the Ti\u1ec1n River. It has been a popular eco-tourism site since the 1990s. Today, it welcomes hundreds of tourists and visitors every day. The paths through the island is lined with fruit trees, including plums, nipa palms and mangoes.Notable people from Ti\u1ec1n Giang[edit]Empress Dowager T\u1eeb D\u0169 (1810\u20131902), mother of the Nguy\u1ec5n dynasty’s Emperor T\u1ef1 \u0110\u1ee9c.Empress Nam Ph\u01b0\u01a1ng (1914\u20131963), consort of Emperor B\u1ea3o \u0110\u1ea1i, the second and last empress consort of the Nguy\u1ec5n dynasty.Nguy\u1ec5n H\u1eefu Hu\u00e2n (1830\u20131975), a scholar and leader of an anti-French colonialist movement in Cochinchina.Nguy\u1ec5n Th\u1ecb Th\u1eadp (1908\u20131996), Deputy Chairwoman of the National Assembly of Vietnam (1960\u201375), and Chairwoman of the Women’s Federation of Vietnam (1956\u201374).Tr\u01b0\u01a1ng M\u1ef9 Hoa (1945-), Vice President of Vietnam (2002\u201307), Deputy Chairwoman of the National Assembly of Vietnam (1997\u20132002), Chairwoman of the Women’s Federation of Vietnam (1992\u201398).L\u00ea Thanh H\u1ea3i (1950-), member of the Politburo of the Communist Party of Vietnam, Secretary of the Ho Chi Minh City’s Communist Party Committee (2006-date).Viet Khang (1973-), Vietnamese songwriter and singer with songs that highly criticized the Socialist Republic of Vietnam.Nguyen Minh Phong, Vietnam’s Next Top Model (cycle 7) top five alumnus.Ph\u01b0\u01a1ng Dung (1946-), Vietnamese country singerTr\u1ea7n V\u0103n Kh\u00ea (1921-2015), Vietnamese musicologist, academic, writer, teacher and performer of traditional music.References[edit]^ Ti\u1ec1n Giang^ “\u0e08\u0e31\u0e14\u0e17\u0e4d\u0e32\u0e42\u0e14\u0e22\u0e2a\u0e16\u0e32\u0e19\u0e01\u0e07\u0e2a\u0e38\u0e25\u0e43\u0e2b\u0e0d \u0e13 \u0e19\u0e04\u0e23\u0e42\u0e2e\u0e08\u0e34\u0e21\u0e34\u0e19\u0e2b \u0e1e\u0e24\u0e29\u0e20\u0e32\u0e04\u0e21” (PDF).^ “\u0e08\u0e31\u0e14\u0e17\u0e4d\u0e32\u0e42\u0e14\u0e22\u0e2a\u0e16\u0e32\u0e19\u0e01\u0e07\u0e2a\u0e38\u0e25\u0e43\u0e2b\u0e0d \u0e13 \u0e19\u0e04\u0e23\u0e42\u0e2e\u0e08\u0e34\u0e21\u0e34\u0e19\u0e2b \u0e1e\u0e24\u0e29\u0e20\u0e32\u0e04\u0e21” (PDF).^ “en.tiengiang.gov.vn – overview”.^ “\u0e08\u0e31\u0e14\u0e17\u0e4d\u0e32\u0e42\u0e14\u0e22\u0e2a\u0e16\u0e32\u0e19\u0e01\u0e07\u0e2a\u0e38\u0e25\u0e43\u0e2b\u0e0d \u0e13 \u0e19\u0e04\u0e23\u0e42\u0e2e\u0e08\u0e34\u0e21\u0e34\u0e19\u0e2b \u0e1e\u0e24\u0e29\u0e20\u0e32\u0e04\u0e21” (PDF).^ a b “en.tiengiang.gov.vn – natural-condition”.^ Ti\u1ec1n Giang th\u00e0nh l\u1eadp th\u1ecb x\u00e3 Cai L\u1eady (Vietnamese) Retrieved 24 October 2018.^ \u0110\u1ea3ng b\u1ed9 Th\u00e0nh ph\u1ed1 M\u1ef9 Tho 45 n\u0103m chi\u1ebfn \u0111\u1ea5u v\u00e0 tr\u01b0\u1edfng th\u00e0nh, Hu\u1ef3nh \u0110\u1ee9c Minh \u2013 UVTV T\u1ec9nh \u1ee7y \u2013 B\u00ed th\u01b0 Th\u00e0nh \u1ee7y M\u1ef9 Tho.^ “Ngh\u1ecb quy\u1ebft 130\/NQ-CP n\u0103m 2013 \u0111i\u1ec1u ch\u1ec9nh \u0111\u1ecba gi\u1edbi h\u00e0nh ch\u00ednh Cai L\u1eady Ti\u1ec1n Giang – b\u1ea3n l\u01b0u tr\u1eef”.^ a b “Quy\u1ebft \u0111\u1ecbnh 155-CP chia huy\u1ec7n G\u00f2 C\u00f4ng t\u1ec9nh Ti\u1ec1n Giang th\u00e0nh huy\u1ec7n G\u00f2 C\u00f4ng \u0110\u00f4ng, G\u00f2 C\u00f4ng T\u00e2y – b\u1ea3n l\u01b0u tr\u1eef”.^ “Ngh\u1ecb \u0111\u1ecbnh 09\/2008\/N\u0110-CP \u0111i\u1ec1u ch\u1ec9nh \u0111\u1ecba gi\u1edbi h\u00e0nh ch\u00ednh huy\u1ec7n G\u00f2 C\u00f4ng \u0110\u00f4ng T\u00e2y \u0111\u1ec3 m\u1edf r\u1ed9ng th\u1ecb x\u00e3 G\u00f2 C\u00f4ng th\u00e0nh l\u1eadp huy\u1ec7n T\u00e2n Ph\u00fa \u0110\u00f4ng, t\u1ec9nh Ti\u1ec1n Giang – b\u1ea3n l\u01b0u tr\u1eef”.^ “Ngh\u1ecb \u0111\u1ecbnh 68-CP th\u00e0nh l\u1eadp huy\u1ec7n T\u00e2n Ph\u01b0\u1edbc thu\u1ed9c t\u1ec9nh Ti\u1ec1n Giang – b\u1ea3n l\u01b0u tr\u1eef”.^ “Ti\u1ec1n Giang can drive growth in Mekong Delta: PM”. vietnamnews.vn.
