Binh Duong Vietnam or Binh Duong province is located in the south of Vietnam. The province is surrounded by Binh Phuoc to the north, Tay Ninh to the west, Dong Nai to the east, and Ho Chi Minh City to the south.

Originally, the area now known as Binh Duong Vietnam was heavily forested, and was dominated by peoples of the Xtieng, Cho Ro, Mnong, and Khmer Krom ethnic groups. In the 17th century, however, ethnic Vietnamese settlers arrived in the region from the east. Most were peasants, seeking to escape poverty by gaining land of their own.
