About Ho Chi Minh City

Ho-Chi-Minh-Stadt, noch oft Saigon genannt, ist Vietnams pulsierendes Handelszentrum mit französischen Kolonialbauten, Kriegsgeschichte und Streetfood.

Distrikt 1 vereint die wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten in Gehweite: die rote Backstein-Kathedrale Notre-Dame, das elegante Hauptpostamt mit seiner gewölbten Halle, das koloniale Opernhaus und das verzierte Rathaus. Der Unabhängigkeitspalast bewahrt seine Räume so, wie sie am Kriegsende waren, und das Kriegsreste-Museum erzählt die Geschichte des Konflikts mit ernüchternder Direktheit.
