Bach Dang commune, Tan Uyen city, Binh Duong province is located between two branches of the Dong Nai river. Bach Dang commune has four sides, all of which are rivers. Previously, people in Bach Dang Islet could only travel by ferry.

Currently, the approach road has been completed and can be used smoothly from Bach Dang bridge to Bach Dang 2 bridge.
