Earth from Space: Mekong Delta, Vietnam

[Jacques van Oene]

Vietnam's Mekong Delta, at the end of the world's twelfth longest river, as
seen by Envisat during a rare almost cloudless day.

Arising in the Himalayas, the Mekong River flows through the territory of
six nations on its 4000-kilometre journey to the South China Sea: China,
Myanmar (Burma), Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. Its waters are
estimated to support around 90 million people in total.
