Ho Chi Minh City Walking Tour, 8 Hours with All Sights and Detailed Guide

We arrived in Ho Chi Minh City on the evening of April 29th, and planned to stay for one day on the 30th. We bought a sleep bus to Nha Trang at night. There are not many attractions to visit, but they are all classic! The last two-story sightseeing bus is recommended to be taken!

🚗 Transportation: Grab is very convenient for Travel, and the distance between attractions is not far, which is about ten yuan in RMB.

🥙 Restaurant: We went to the lantern restaurant Ben Thanh (Figure 5). His grilled rice noodles are delicious, and there are Vietnamese spring rolls~ The seafood is fresh and big. The menu is in Chinese and English. The waiters also speak English, so communication is convenient.

📍 Attractions Guide

1. Pink Cathedral Tan Dinh (Figure 2)

🌟 On the road opposite the church: You can take a full picture of the entire church here (Figure 2). There are many motorcycles and the speed is very fast. Be sure to pay attention to safety!

🌟 The balcony on the third floor of the cafe diagonally opposite the road (cong cafe)
The shooting angle is relatively open, and it is very beautiful to take pictures of people and scenery. There were a lot of people when we went, so we didn’t go up.
🌟This church does not require a ticket, you can go in and visit it, and some sculptures are also very good to take pictures of~

2. Ho Chi Minh Museum of Fine Arts (Figure 3 Figure 4)
The ticket is about 30K Vietnamese dong, the whole building is in French Baroque style, and it is also one of the most representative buildings during the French colonial period.
🌟The main thing is to take pictures of some French-style small balconies (Figure 3), and there is a platform on the second floor of the first building, which is easy to take pictures (Figure 4)
Some of the paintings here are a bit gloomy, maybe I can't appreciate them.

3. Ho Chi Minh Statue & City Hall (Picture 1 and 7)
🌟If you want to take a photo with the City Hall, you can walk to the road sign 🪧 on the right side of the City Hall entrance. It is very photogenic if you shoot from above (Picture 1)
🌟The Ho Chi Minh Square is right in front of the City Hall, where there is a bronze statue of Ho Chi Minh. It is a good idea to just take a photo of the scenery~ Check in

4. You must take the sightseeing bus after 7pm
🌟The boarding location is in front of the small square of the Municipal Center, close to the LV over there. You can see it when you walk over.
The ticket is 150k VND (45rmb)/person. Buy the ticket on the bus. Be sure to take the second floor. It is recommended to go around 7 o'clock. The night view has just started. We also saw the sunset, which is absolutely beautiful~ (Picture 6)
🌟 The bus will bypass the center of Ho Chi Minh City and go around the opposite river. The night view is beautiful and the breeze at night is very comfortable
