| Vinh River(also known as Con Moc, Moi, Cua Tien, Vinh Giang) is the final section of the Nha Le Canal. This famous river, associated with the many changes and upheavals of history in Nghe An province, has formed densely populated and prosperous areas connecting from the Cam River, through the Ke Gai River to communes and wards such as Hung Thinh, Cua Nam, Vinh Tan, Trung Do before passing through Ba Ra Ben Thuy and flowing into the Lam River. It is a vital artery for transportation and irrigation, contributing to the economic and social development of the region.Nghe An regionPhoto: Thanh Cuong |

| Today, amidst the pressures of rapid urbanization and low public awareness, the indiscriminate dumping of garbage and waste, with a large volume of wastewater from various wards in Vinh City flowing into the Vinh River, is causing increasingly severe pollution. The river is narrowing and unable to cope with the ever-increasing flow, especially during the rainy season, leading to frequent localized flooding. (Photo: Thanh Cuong) |

| Given the current state of water pollution in the Vinh River and the localized flooding in the city during the rainy season, and recognizing the importance of the Vinh River in promoting economic, cultural, and tourism development, as well as its future drainage capacity, the city has paid close attention to the renovation, upgrading, and improvement of the Vinh River's current state.
