About Ho Chi Minh City

Ho Chi Minh-byen, stadig ofte kaldet Saigon, er Vietnams summende handelscentrum med franske koloniale vartegn, krigshistorie og fremragende gademad.

Distrikt 1 rummer hovedseværdighederne inden for gåafstand: den røde murstens Notre-Dame-katedral, det elegante Centralpostkontor med sin hvælvede hal, det koloniale Operahus og det udsmykkede Rådhus. Uafhængighedspaladset bevarer sine rum, som de var ved krigens afslutning, og Krigsmuseet fortæller om konflikten med nøgtern direkthed.
