If you have visited and enjoyed the beauty of Chau Trang, you will find that the entrance fee of 100 yuan (about 352,000 VND) is not very expensive.

Watching the old houses on both sides of the canal drifting gently in front of your eyes next to the willow rows along the two banks of the canal, you can still live in the atmosphere of old Chau Trang when listening to the boatmen singing traditional songs beside the The paddle sweeps the water smoothly.
Chau Trang still retains many old houses thanks to well preserved. But there are also many houses that have deteriorated, badly damaged, or have to be repaired or almost built to rent out souvenirs, but still ensure traditional architecture.
The day we visited, beside the wooden passenger boats, there were boats carrying building materials to repair the house. But anyway, everything here is still going slowly and peacefully.
