Route

  1. Dive into the secret world of the Biet Dong Sai Gon, the elite urban guerrilla force of the Vietnam War. Our journey begins at a quiet home in a 3 Thang 2 Street alley, once the clandestine weapons depot of Mr. Do Van Can. Here, a shoemaker-turned-commando built a hidden underground bunker beneath his living room sofa to store explosives smuggled from An Dong Market for the historic Tet Offensive. Next, we visit Pho Binh on Ly Chinh Thang Street. Over traditional northern-style pho, learn how 100+ commandos assembled here in January 1968 to receive final orders for the U.S. Embassy attacks, and meet a living eyewitness of those pivotal days. We then explore the Saigon–Gia Dinh Special Forces Museum, packed with rare artifacts of those who fought from the shadows. Conclude at Do Phu Cafe, where a simple wardrobe conceals a hidden hatch leading to a wartime shelter. An unforgettable look at Saigon's hidden history.

About Ho Chi Minhstad

Ho Chi Minhstad, vaak nog Saigon genoemd, is het bruisende handelscentrum van Vietnam met Frans koloniaal erfgoed, oorlogsgeschiedenis en straatvoedsel.

District 1 herbergt de belangrijkste bezienswaardigheden op loopafstand: de roodstenen Notre-Dame-kathedraal, het sierlijke Centrale Postkantoor met zijn gewelfde hal, het koloniale Operahuis en het rijk versierde Stadhuis. In het Onafhankelijkheidspaleis zijn de kamers bewaard zoals ze aan het einde van de oorlog waren, en het Museum van de Oorlogsresten vertelt het verhaal van het conflict met ontnuchterende openheid.

Top-ranked sights in Ho Chi Minhstad: Cu Chi Tunnels, Saigon Opera House (Opéra de Saïgon), Saigon Central Post Office.
