A must-visit gem in the heart of Ho Chi Minh City! This historic post office, designed by Gustave Eiffel, enchants with its vintage charm, arched ceilings, and beautiful tiled floors. It’s not just a photo spot — you can still send postcards from here! Step inside and feel the blend of French elegance and Vietnamese soul. Timeless, peaceful, and full of character.

If you have been on one of these before then you will know what to expect. They are great to get round the city, sight see and learn a little about history. The auto Que can be a little behind at times but it’s not a problem. They have open top buses which we did find were quite busy at times and struggled for a seat but we ended up sitting downstairs with the aircon and the view was just as good. Tour guides on the buses are very helpful. We paid on trip and we found it is cheaper then at the desk.

Quite amazing and cultural. Didn't realize how time went by. Very colourful and a bit funny. The dolls danced on water and conveyed Very good messages and gave a reflection of ancient Vietnam and it's stories. A bit costly but definitely worth a try

The tower entrance is clearly marked and labeled as it has its own reception and elevator to the highest floor. The overall reception is very good and professional and gives you an elegant feel. If you enjoy over head views of city this sky deck gives a clear and perfect vantage point and 360 view of the city.

It feels like a museum of political symbols, and there will be not much resonance for Vietnamese history without understanding. There is still a difference in the human history, ideas, and westernization of the North and South Vietnamese.

Saigon Opera House

"On the first day of landing in Ho Chi Minh City, I booked a show in the evening. It was said to be similar to Cirque du Soleil. The venue was located in the city center. The theater was right in front of the hotel. It was only a 5-minute walk away. It couldn't be more convenient. This theater has a long history. It was designed and built by the French. It has a strong French style. The building itself is worth reading. The performance was a little different from what I imagined. It was a bit wrong to call it a circus. In fact, it was a composite carrier that combined many elements of song and dance acrobatics. It showed the audience Vietnam's past to the present. The local characteristics were obvious. It was very interesting. Recommended to watch. Tips ① There are free drinks before the performance. Everyone can line up to get them. ② At the end of the performance, there will be a segment where the actors and the audience take photos. It is here at the Internet celebrity stairs. Don't miss it if you like it."
Saigon River Princess Cruise
M30***59
"Saigon cruises are a relaxing and exotic experience. The breeze on the Mekong River at night, and the city lights are reflected on the water, which is very charming. Many cruise ships also provide dinner and live music performances, which is very pleasant to eat and watch the night view. The boats range from minimalist to luxurious, suitable for different budgets and needs."
