Long Xuyên, formally named Thủ Đông Xuyên, is the capital city of An Giang province, in the Mekong Delta region of south-western Vietnam. In 1789, a group of explorers established a small outpost in the Tam Khe canal, naming it Dong Xuyen. Soon after, a marketplace was created and named Long Xuyên, but by the 1860s the area became better known for the Long Xuyen market than by the official outpost's name. From 1877, the reach of Long Xuyên grew as the city's administration became responsible for an increasing number of neighborhoods and wards. Long Xuyen would not be designated as a formal city until 1999.
