- War Remnants Museum - The War Remnants Museum in Ho Chi Minh City first opened its doors to the public in 1975. Previously called the ‘Museum of American War Crimes,’ it stands as a poignant reminder of the prolonged and brutal Vietnam War. The museum displays photographs and military equipment from the United States, including a rocket-launching helicopter, a tank, a fighter jet, and a single-seat attack aircraft. Additionally, a conventional bomb weighing 6,800kg is on display. These weapons were used by American forces against the Vietnamese between 1945 and 1975.
- Saigon Notre Dame Cathedral - Known as the ‘Paris of the East,’ Saigon’s Notre Dame Cathedral features distinctive twin towers constructed with bricks imported from Marseille, France. Nearby, the historic Post Office offers a great opportunity to capture photographs of Vietnam’s bustling, modern city.
- The Independence Palace - The Reunification Palace, formerly the Presidential Palace, is a significant landmark from the era when the communist Vietnamese gained independence during the ‘Fall of Saigon’ in 1975. Built with Soviet assistance in the 1960s, the palace is a striking structure. The tank that crashed through its gates on April 30, 1975, symbolizing ‘The Fall,’ still stands in the front yard.
- Central Post Office - The Central Post Office in Ho Chi Minh City is a beautifully preserved example of French colonial architecture and is perhaps the finest post office in Southeast Asia. Located near Notre Dame Cathedral, these two cultural landmarks can be visited together, offering a glimpse into life in Vietnam during the Indochinese Empire. Designed by Alfred Foulhoux, the building features arched windows and wooden shutters, reminiscent of its late 1800s heyday.
