Travel Guide

Boasting an electric energy, Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) is Vietnam’s largest metropolis and its undisputed capital of commerce. Known as one of Southeast Asia’s liveliest cities, it has many hidden charms.

While in Vietnam on business, you may want to take the opportunity to see some of the famous historical sites.

Museum of Ho Chi Minh City: Housed in a grey, neoclassical structure built in 1886 and once known as Gia Long Palace (later, the Revolutionary Museum), the Museum of Ho Chi Minh City is a singularly beautiful and amazing building.

War Remnants Museum (Nha Trung Bay Toi Ac Chien Tranh): Even the casual historian will question some of the displays in this controversial museum depicting the horrors of the Vietnam conflict, but it’s worth a visit.

Cho Ben Thanh Market: This is one of the most interesting places in Ho Chi Minh City,. If you want to do some shopping whilst in Vietnam then this is the place for you when there are many bargains to be had.
