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.
