Discover Sam Mountain in Chau Doc Town

[Pu Luong Excursions]

Chau Doc is a bustling Cambodian border town. Sam Mountain soaring up in the center of lush rice fields is the town’s distinguishing feature. Although it is only 182 meters tall, this tiny mountain still dominates a huge flat landscape. When you reach the mountain’s summit, you can see the entire delta all the way to Cambodia.

Buddhism is the majority religion, thus you will pass through temples and tombs that are brightly painted.

There is a trail of ceramic dinosaurs leading up to the mountain’s summit. The Vietnamese army keeps watch over the border with Cambodia from a tin post on the top.

You may be sure that it has been lit up along the way to make it easier for you to climb the mountain if you want to see Chau Doc sunrise on the mountain peak. After enjoying the sunrise, you can fill yourself with breakfast at one of the roadside eateries before going down the mountain.
