Visit Vietnam: Ho Chi Minh City | Private jet charter
Located in southern Vietnam, Ho Chi Minh City is a vibrant, energetic metropolis that is deeply proud of its heritage. From its mix of food stalls to five-star restaurants, rich cultural history to modern influences, Ho Chi Minh offers plenty to sate any tourist.
Saigon Notre-Dame Basilica
Constructed by French colonists in the 1800s, Ho Chi Minh’s Saigon Notre-Dame Basilica is located in appropriately named Paris Square and was granted basilica status by the Vatican in 1962. The all-brick red façade was imported from Marseille and there’s a peaceful garden here for quiet contemplation.
Nguyen Walking Street
An attractive wide boulevard located in District 1 of the city centre, Nguyen Walking Street is bordered by outstanding examples of French colonial architecture, such as the People’s Committee (look for the statue of Ho Chi Minh), the Rex Hotel and a luxury shopping mall. The Saigon River is at one end of the street, providing a cool breeze on sticky days and the fountain show at night is an attractive backdrop.
Riverboat Tour
Join a sunset or day cruise on the famous Saigon River – an excellent vantage point to enjoy the city vistas from a more tranquil standpoint. Along the Saigon River’s banks are villages, skyscrapers, and underground tunnels, all elements of the diversity of heritage and lifestyles that encompass this sometimes overwhelming metropolis.
New Japan Town
An upcoming enclave of Japanese entrepreneurial talent, New Japan Town is located in the hip Bình Thạnh District. As well as businesses, the area offers visitors a plethora of bars and restaurants – both Japanese and Vietnamese – and has a touch of the Old Saigon before development took over the city.
Bitexco Financial Tower – Saigon Skydeck
The best views over Ho Chi Minh City and the river are to be had on the 49th floor of the Bitexco Financial Tower with free binoculars and informative displays. You’ll be rewarded with 360-degree vistas and can join the World of Heineken guided interactive beer-brewing tour.
