A border province with the Bu Gia Map primary forest, marvelous grasslands and rich S'tieng and M'nong cultures.
Binh Phuoc lies along the southwestern border, the gateway linking the southeast with the Central Highlands and Cambodia. It is a land of endless cashew hills and pepper gardens and precious primary forests such as Bu Gia Map. Pristine nature—the Bu Lach grasslands, rapids and forest streams—together with the gong culture of the S'tieng and M'nong peoples gives this quietly captivating frontier land its own distinct character.
