Ho Chi Minh City

Enter Ho Chi Minh City, and enter an intoxicating cosmopolitan world of unmatched energy and excitement – a noisy and crowded industrial metropolis, but nonetheless a city with a spark. Located on the edge of the Mekong Delta on a bend of the Saigon River, the city is better known by its former name Saigon, now a relatively modern and capitalist city but one that has retained its Asiatic character and remnants of its French colonial past.

Immerse yourself in the electric atmosphere of Ho Chi Minh City by walking or riding a bike around the compact District 1, the bustling hub of major tourist venues. For shopaholics and bargain-hunters, the colourful Binh Tay Market in the city’s Chinatown is for you where you’ll find almost every food, drink and fabric you ever thought existed (from delicious tropical fruits to barbecued dog!). Find peace and quiet from the overwhelming clamour of the streets and alleyways at the temples of Cholon, the tranquil Botanical Gardens, or the lavishly decorated Nghia An Hoi Quan Pagoda on Nguyen Trai. As the sun sets, hit the streets around Dong Khoi and Hai Ba Trung for the best nightlife experience Ho Chi Minh City has to offer. So book discount airfares with Jetabroad and delight in the hidden wonders of this unique city!
