Saigon River (I)

Posted by Alfredo J. Martiz J. (Panama City, Panama) on 19 April 2007 in Transportation.

The Saigon River is a river located in southern Vietnam that rises near Phum Daung in southeastern Cambodia, and flows south and south-southeast for about 140 miles (225 km) to the Mekong Delta.

The Saigon River is joined 18 miles (29 km) northeast of Ho Chi Minh City (formerly named Saigon) by the Dong Nai River, and just above Ho Chi Minh City it is joined by the Ben Cat River. Saigon River is important to Ho Chi Minh City as it is the main water supply as well as the host of Saigon Port, which has a total cargo volume load/outloaded of more than 35 million metric tons in 2006.
