Best Things To Do In Ho Chi Minh City

 Vibrating with energy, innovation and traffic lots of traffic Ho Chi Minh City, formerly known as Saigon, is the economic heart of Vietnam and the main hub of the southern region. A freewheeling, cosmopolitan metropolis, HCMC's dynamic cityscape draws together old and new Vietnam in the most compact of spaces, representing the city’s past as well as its future.


Walk down Đong Khoi street to acquaint yourself with the Notre Dame Cathedral, the city's Central Post Office, and the Saigon Opera House. On a more local level, Ben Thanh Market and the Jade Emperor Pagoda are worth a visit.

The Chinese neighbourhood known as Cho Lon is great for exploring on foot. Head for Binh Tay Market, a colossal wholesale trading centre, and Thien Hau Pagoda, an atmospheric temple that pays homage to the goddess of the sea. 

Do as the locals do and hop on the back of a motorbike to see the city on street level and feel its energetic pulse. Motorbike tours set off in the evening, when the city is at its most romantic and the sidewalk vendors are out in force.

Ho Chi Minh City locals love to gather around dented metal tables across the city for incredible roadside feasts. Don't miss highlights such as bánh mì, southern-style savoury pancakes and broken rice.
