Sa Dec flower village by car: the route from Ho Chi Minh City, the Tết flower season and parking tips. Sa Dec flower village lies on the Tien River in Sa Dec ward, Dong Thap province (merged from Dong Thap and Tien Giang in 2025). The craft village dates back to the late 19th century, grows around 2,000 varieties of flowers and ornamental plants, and looks its best in the weeks before Tết. It makes an easy family trip from Ho Chi Minh City or Can Tho.
The village is open year-round as the growers work, but it is liveliest about a month before Tết, when gardens prepare spring flowers. Mornings and late afternoons are the nicest times to visit. The first day of Tết 2027 is Saturday 6 February; roads to the Mekong Delta are busy just before Tết, so set off early.
Sa Dec noodle soup and Lai Vung fermented pork rolls are local specialities; the pork rolls are also a popular gift to take home.

Chauffeur prices include fuel and tolls, every quote gets 10% off, and an 8% VAT invoice is issued on request. Tết prices are higher than usual, with a deposit of about 10%.
