This is an amazing place to visit, the rooms are still furnished in 1960/70&#39;s style. Even though they are corded off you really get to see into the life of the tenants and visitors. Spend some time to look around. Also great views.It cost next to nothing and is a great place to spend a few hours. I icy they hadn&rsquo;t parked the tanks on the lawn out front and it is ruining the grass

Reunification Palace

Historical Architectures

Historic landmark! So big,worth to visit. Learn a lot about Vietnam history.

Great fun way to spend a few hours. Especially good for families. Zip line and row boat tours are good. The shopping is the usual Thai market stuff, with the occasional variations. Varied and plentiful food options of a less typical nature. Would definitely recommend, but not sure that you would go more than once. Late afternoon through to evening is probably the best time to go as the temp is more comfortable and the markets look the prettiest for photos. Plenty of free parking onsite.

Pattaya Floating Market

Nice experience. One way boat ride and then you can get back by walking through the floating market. Good products like handbags available at cheap prices.

A Hindu temple at Vietnam&#39;s Ho Chi Minh city. It is small, but it is located at the center of a busy area. It has a mix of Indian (Tamil) and Vietnamese culture. You can admire the beauty of Vietnamese worshipping Indian god in their style. This proves that the god is unique to everyone, irrespective of the religious and cultural diversities. When Indians (particularly Tamilans) see the name &#39;Maduraiveeran&#39;, goosebumps guaranteed. This should be every Ho Chi Minh city tourist&#39;s must checklist, to feel the positive energy and admire the ancient architecture :)

The place is not big, in the city center. The building is very distinctive, and the whole atmosphere is still very interesting for us who have not been to India. There are many Indian gods and celebrity statues on the wall. Free visit.

The museum is somewhat small, but it has some very interesting exhibits. The captured American aircraft and tanks outside are cool to look at. I&#39;ve been to several Vietnam war museums in this country, and many are straight up propaganda. This one isn&#39;t. It&#39;s actually fairly subjective. And the Agent Orange exhibit was very powerful.An absolute must visit in Saigon. Parts of the museum feel a bit &ldquo;propaganda-y&rdquo;, but the Agent Orange exhibit is an absolutely important piece of history that everyone should see. It is also informative, heartbreaking, and highlights the resilience of the Vietnamese people. I will never forget the exhibit and will always remember the shame felt as an American in the museum.

Very worthwhile place for the 40K VND ticket, which is paid in cash. There&#39;s a wide range of military tanks and aircraft and information on it if you&#39;re keen on such historical war vehicles that are relatively well preseved and presented. The exhibitions within also provided a good understanding of the Vietnam War, and while some of the images and exhibitions are not for the faint-hearted involing Agent Orange, it was very informative and teaches you alot on the detrimental impacts of war. There are free audio guides if you need an elaborated explanation!Overall, it is a must visit place when you visit Ho Chi Minh City if you like history and want to know more about Vietnam!
