Get a local's perspective on this evocative Vietnamese metropolis as you explore Ho Chi Minh City at your own pace. Vietnam's largest city boasts an energy travelers can feel the moment they step out onto the street. Recent economic growth means trendy restaurants and world class shopping jostle for space alongside centuries old temples and open air cafes.

Exhibits include photographs, machinery, and weapons that depict the harsh realities of war). Continue Thien Hau Temple (One of the most important pagodas in the city, this richly decorated temple is dedicated to Thien Hau, the Goddess of the Sea and patron of sailors.

She is said to travel over the oceans on a mat and ride the clouds to wherever she desires).

A large statue of the Virgin Mary greets you as you walk into this neo-Romanesque cathedral, adorned by two tall spires flanking either side).

General Post Office (Designed by Gustav Eiffel, the Post Office is a testament to the French presence in the late 1800s. The look and feel of this grand building is like an elegant railway station).
