Salt fields in the former An Ngai area, a traditional craft recognised by the province in 2018

The salt fields spread along the former An Ngai area, now part of Long Dien commune, where salt workers still channel in seawater, let it dry in the sun and rake up the salt through the dry season, from about the ninth to the fourth lunar month of the following year.
