Ho Chi Minh City, formerly Saigon, pulses with an electric energy where tradition meets modernity. Motorbikes weave through streets lined with French colonial architecture, while incense wafts from ancient temples. Visitors can sample steaming bowls of pho from street vendors, explore the harrowing War Remnants Museum, or venture into the Cu Chi tunnels. The city’s bustling Ben Thanh Market offers everything from local handicrafts to aromatic spices, while rooftop bars provide stunning views of the glittering skyline.
