If I like something about Saigon is how it is decorated during Lunar New Year. I might say that Saigon is spectacular!

Phu My Bridge, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
Phu My Bridge is a huge bridge that links District 7 with District 2 of Saigon. You have great view over Saigon but unfortunately Saigon is too polluted and it is almost impossible to get a sharp photo.
Photography hot spots in Saigon
For street photography, Saigon is the heaven due to its crowded streets and vibrant city life.
Photographing Saigon’s street life
Walking around Saigon is impossible not to find something to photograph. All you need is an open eye and a photo camera.
Neighborhood restaurant – May Bon Phuong
How could I know about this restaurant?! It is hidden on a small street and it is probably found only by the people who live around.
Cao Dai Temple Vietnam
If you are interested in different religions then visiting Cao Dai temple will be a rewarding experience. Cao Dai is a religion that incorporates elements from Taoism, Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam (and probably others).
Can Gio and Monkey Island, Vietnam
Can Gio is located 40 km south-east of Ho Chi Minh City and it is listed by UNESCO as a biosphere reserve. It is a great place to visit if you like monkeys and want to see an authentic mangrove forest.
Binh Quoi Tourist Village
Binh Quoi is a big beautiful park located in Binh Thanh district of Saigon. There are two parks (or tourist villages as they are known); Binh Quoi 1 and Binh Quoi 2.
Ao Dai Museum, Saigon
For those who don’t know, ao dai is the name given to Vietnamese national costume, and yes, there is a private museum in Saigon dedicated to ao dai. I had opportunity to visit this place, located about one hour by taxi from the city center and I was really impressed.
