Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Central Post Office, At the top of Dong Khoi St opposite Notre Dame Cathedral, Ho Chi Minh City 70000 Vietnam
A post office may not sound very exciting but the one in Ho Chi Minh City was designed by Gustave Eiffel, of Eiffel Tower fame.
The building is designed in the Gothic style and dates from 1886 and is still one of the most famous monuments in the city.
Make sure that you go inside, as you will find a huge domed roof and grand walls which are adorned with maps from the colonial period.
There is also a requisite portrait of Ho Chi Minh, the founding father of modern Vietnam.
Duration: 10 minutes
Stop At: Ben Thanh Market, Le Loi, Ben Thanh Ward, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City 700000 Vietnam
Ben Thanh Market is located in the center of Ho Chi Minh City and is a great place to come to shop and eat.
On a visit to the market you will find a range of street food vendors selling local snacks, as well as a dry area where you can pick up some souvenirs.
Duration: 10 minutes
Stop At: Saigon Notre Dame Cathedral, 01 Cong xa Paris Ben Nghe Ward, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City 700000 Vietnam
Notre Dame Cathedral was built from 1877 and 1883 and sits in the heart of the city.
The cathedral is designed in the neo-Romanesque style and you can check out the towers here which soar to a height of 40 meters and are topped with impressive iron spires.
The cathedral got its name from the Virgin Mary and the inside is covered in devotional tablets and pretty stained glass windows.
Duration: 15 minutes
Stop At: Saigon Opera House (Ho Chi Minh Municipal Theater), 07 Lam Son Square Street District 1, Ho Chi Minh City 700000 Vietnam
Saigon Opera House was built in 1898 by the French architect – Eugene Ferret, following the “flamboyant” style of the French Third Republic. It was set to be two meters higher than the street surface with two door layers, in order to prevent traffic noise.
Duration: 10 minutes
Stop At: Emperor Jade Pagoda, 73 Mai Thi Luu, Ho Chi Minh City 700000 Vietnam
The Jade Emperor Pagoda is dedicated to the Taoist god known as the King of Heaven or Ngoc Hoang.
As you would expect from the name, this is one of the fanciest temples in Ho Chi Minh City and you will find statues of deities here as well as large coils of smoking incense.
The walls are lined with elaborate woodcarvings and the roof is also a work of art in its own right.
