Ho Chi Minh City



I only spent two days in Saigon and walked around the city center which still has some very nice French buildings. Here a selection:


People's Committee Building, or what used to be the Hotel de Ville


Opera House (unfortunately nothing was on, while I was there....)


Main post office - I have sent a parcel back home from here...but by ship... so it will probably arrive for the end of the summer...


Cathedral

The area with the cheap hotels for all the tourists looks a bit different....


View of my Hotel (I had a room on 2nd floor - lucky me! (but have also been on 4th floor once...that was not too fun!)


Restaurant serving delicious breakfast - view of the kitchen, which is open to the street.

The main pictures shows the Reunification Palace.
