Welcome to Ho Chi Minh city! Ho Chi Minh City, formerly Saigon, is the largest city in Vietnam and a major center for commerce, finance, and culture.
Upon arrival, welcomed by the local tour guide and transfer to hotel to leave your heavy luggage. Your free time to relax after long flight.
This afternoon, we start our day with a visit to the War Remnants Museum, which documents the Vietnam War in graphic detail. The museum's exhibits are both harrowing and thought-provoking, and they provide a valuable glimpse into one of the most destructive wars in history.
Next, we visit the Reunification Palace, which was formerly the Independence Palace of the South Vietnamese president. The palace was stormed by tanks on April 30, 1975, marking the end of the Vietnam War. Today, the palace has been preserved in its original state, and it's a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era. We end our day with a walk through the city center, where we'll see some of Ho Chi Minh City's most iconic landmarks, such as City Hall, the Opera House, Notre Dame Cathedral (view from outside only), built between 1877 and 1883, and the colonial-styled Central Post Office. We'll also visit Ben Thanh Market, a bustling marketplace where you can find souvenirs, handicrafts, and local delicacies. Overnight in Ho Chi Minh.
