Climate change, landslides, salinity or ecological imbalance… all are gradually eroding this fertile delta. And in that context, recording, preserving and recreating the process of forming this land has become an urgent matter. The Mekong Delta Geological Museum was formed from that need. This project is not simply a place to display artifacts, where each layer of geological strata becomes a language, and alluvium becomes a material for people to better understand the place they live. Through the museum, the journey of thousands of years of land formation will be looked back on.
