Article History

Hai Duong, city, northern Vietnam. It is located along the Thai Binh River in the Red River delta, about midway between Haiphong (southeast) and Hanoi (northwest). A rail line links it to the two larger cities, and it is a market centre for a rich rice-growing region; litchi, watermelons, jute, rushes, potatoes, and tomatoes are also raised in the area. Hai Duong stands in one of the most densely populated and intensively cultivated areas of the country, and the city’s population has grown dramatically since 1990. Pop. (1999) 111,686; (2009) 170,420.
