Tra Vinh is located at the end of the island, between Tien and Hau rivers. The terrain is mainly flat land with an altitude of less than 1m above sea level. Because it is located in the coastal plain, there are many sand dunes running along the coast, forming parallel curves. The closer the beds are to the sea, the taller and wider they are. With separation by rice fields and a network of roads and canals, Tra Vinh's terrain is quite complex. There are low areas sandwiched between high fields, and the slope is only shown on each field. In particular, the southern part of the province has low land, divided by bow-shaped sand dunes into many small depressions, with heights of only 0.5-0.8m. Therefore, every year, this area is often flooded with saltwater for a period of 3-5 months.

However, due to the characteristics of the coastal climate, Tra Vinh province has some meteorological limitations such as strong winds, high evaporation, and little rain. Tra Vinh is located in the tropical region with a temperate climate, average temperature from 20 - 27 °C, average humidity 80 - 8000%/year, less affected by storms and floods. The rainy season is from May to November, the dry season is from December to April of the following year, the average rainfall is from 1,400 - 1,600mm, with favorable conditions for investment in production, business and tourism[4] . Every year, drought often occurs, causing difficulties for production with a number of consecutive days without rain from 10 to 18 days, in which districts such as Cau Ke, Cang Long, and Tra Cu are districts that rarely suffer from drought. Tieu Can district has an important drought at the beginning of the crop around June and July, while the remaining districts such as Chau Thanh, Cau Ngang, Duyen Hai have drought in the middle of the crop but in July and August are often more serious. Tra Vinh also faces a current difficulty: being flooded with salt water during some dry seasons of the year.

Implementing the teachings of Mr. Phan Thanh Gian, Mr. Truong Ngoc Lang (ie Mr. Non) sought many measures to protect Van Thanh Mieu - the cultural heritage of Vinh Long land. After occupying Vinh Long, the French colonialists used the excuse of lack of wood to build the Provincial Governor's Palace, intending to destroy Van Thanh Temple. At that time, Ba Ho Truong Ngoc Lang (from Minh Huong) was nominated by his compatriots to join the expeditionary force to retain this cultural work. From then until now, Van Thanh Temple of Vinh Long was renovated in 1872, 1903, 1914, 1933, 1963, 1994, 2006 and 2007. Having gone through many historical events, the building has been restored and renovated many times but still retains its original architecture, and was recognized as a national cultural relic in 1991. The majestic three-entrance gate faces the quiet river, built in the ancient style with a three-storey roof, simple but artistic, with a pair of elegant tureens carved on the two pillars. Behind the gate is the Shinto path leading straight to Dai Thanh Palace. On both sides are two rows of soaring stars of the same age as the Holy Temple. Two straight rows of tall trees give the landscaped garden and relic site a depth and a strangely solemn and quiet atmosphere. On that road, amidst the flowers and leaves, visitors can admire three stone steles that have faded over time. In front of the gate is a stele recording the writings of Mr. Phan Thanh Gian, on the front stating the reason for building the temple, praising the merits of the Saint and the court, on the back praising the names of those with meritorious services. In total, there are three valuable steles marking historical periods associated with the Temple of Literature. In addition to the Phan Thanh Gian stele, there is also a stele recording the temple's restoration in 1903, and a stele recording credit to Ms. Truong Thi Loan (Mr. Truong Ngoc Lang's daughter) for donating land to make flowers and incense sticks. Confucius Temple used to be simple, with tree pillars and a tiled roof on the ground. In 1903, it was replaced with wooden pillars, lined with Chinese bricks, and covered with large and tube tiles. The Confucius Temple has many pairs of parallel tureens and horizontal panels that have historical and cultural value and show the love of learning of the Southern people. The main hall is made in the style of overlapping and spiraling snail steps. The statue of Confucius is worshiped in the middle, flanked by four masters. In addition, the altar on the left and right also worships 12 other great scholars. Outside, two small temples (Ta vu, Huu vu) were built as a place to commemorate the 72 famous students of Confucius. Van Xuong Cac is located right at the entrance to the relic, with two cannons on both sides. These ancient guns from 1921 were placed at the wharf (in front of the current Vinh Long Museum). In 1937, it brought Van Thanh Mieu and in 1960 it was placed majestically on a pedestal. Van Xuong Cac was built in the style of overlapping snail steps. Upstairs is a place to store books and worship Van Xuong De Quan, a god in charge of academic examinations. Downstairs, the middle space is where writers sit and converse, behind is a sophisticatedly carved altar, inside are placed two tablets, with parallel sentences praising the two leading scholars of Gia Dinh land, Vo Truong Toan and Phan Thanh.
