Bạc Liêu (Template:IPA-vi) is a provincial city and capital of the Bạc Liêu Province in the Mekong Delta region in southern Vietnam. It is a medium-sized town with a population of approximately 150,000. The former name of the city is Vĩnh Lợi.

History

The name Bạc Liêu is based on the Chinese pronunciation of a Khmer name (Pol Leav ពលលាវ in Khmer). In the 1950s the area was a center of Huỳnh Phú Sổ's Hòa Hảo religion after Sổ was released there.
