HALF DAY HO CHI MINH CITY
(FORMER SAIGON) TOUR
Ho Chi
Minh City, formerly known as Saigon, is the largest and busiest city in Vietnam
with a population of 7 million people. Much of the daily life takes place on
the streets, which are lined with shops, stalls and vendors with their wares
spread out on the footpath. Don't miss the bustling Ben Thanh Market - a
fantastic place for bargains of every kind! There are several interesting
sights in Saigon. The War Remnants Museum has a wealth of images from
the wars, the most moving being a gallery entitled 'Requiem' which is dedicated
to Vietnamese and foreign journalists and photographers who perished during the
French and American conflicts. The Reunification Palace was the former
residence of the President of South Vietnam until April 30, 1975 when the North
Vietnamese tanks came crashing through the front gates, bringing the
U.S.-Vietnam War to a dramatic end. Close to the Palace some of the best
examples of French colonial architecture are represented in the forms of Notre
Dame Cathedral and the Central Post Office. Notre Dame Cathedral was built
between 1877 and 1883, and the stones used to create it were exported in its
entirety from France. Next to the cathedral stands the Central Post Office,
finished in 1891. It is another fine example of French architecture and is
Vietnam's largest post office. For all of its French colonial history, Ho Chi
Minh City is by far Vietnam's most modern city. It has numerous shopping malls,
cinemas, discotheques and a bewildering number of bars.
