Top 11 Things to do in SAIGON (Ho Chi Minh) VIETNAM

We went back to one of our favourite countries in the world - Vietnam! Last year we traveled through North and Central Vietnam, but this time round we visited the South, Saigon aka Ho Chi Minh.
During our time in Saigon, Vietnam, we compiled a list of 11 Top things to do in Saigon. We hope it'll give you some ideas of fun things to do and must-visit places in Ho Chi Minh.
1. MEKONG DELTA
As a first must-do activity in Saigon, we ticked off something from our Vietnam bucket list which is visiting the Mekong Delta river. Our day trip included a stop off at Vinh Trang Pagoda as well as a simple lunch at Tortoise Island (also known as Turtle Island).

2. ARTINUS 3D ART MUSEUM
Visiting Artinus 3D Art Museum is a fun way to spend a few hours. There are a ton of different 3D artworks to take loads of great photos. It's one of those enjoyable family-friendly top places to visit in Saigon especially if you want to create some fun memories together.
Address: Số 2 Đường số 9, Tân Hưng, Quận 7, Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam
3. A O SHOW (SAIGON OPERA HOUSE)
If you enjoy theater productions filled with culture, acrobatics and traditional live music then visiting the Saigon Opera House in Ho Chi Minh to watch the A O Show will be right up your alley.
You're not allowed to take photos or video the performance but we reached out to the team and were granted a special backstage sneak peak for our channel (with permission to film) before watching the full performance that night. Make sure you check when the sessions are beforehand. You can pick up your tickets from the Saigon Opera House rather than buy it online too.
Saigon Opera House
Address: 07 Công Trường Lam Sơn, Bến Nghé, Quận 1, Hồ Chí Minh 700000, Vietnam
4. CU CHI TUNNELS
A must do visit activity while visiting Saigon is checking out the Cu Chi tunnels. Vietnam was able to win various wars through genius guerrilla tactics and to be able to see the Cu Chi tunnels in real life and learn about the history of what life was like for the soldiers and Vietnamese people was super interesting.
Address: TL15, Phú Hiệp, Củ Chi, Hồ Chí Minh 733814, Vietnam
If you want to book the same tour as us you can use the link below:

Address: 26-28-30 Thủ Khoa Huân, Phường Bến Thành, Quận 1, Hồ Chí Minh 700000, Vietnam
6. BEN THANH MARKET
The Ben Thanh local market is located just a few steps away.
Address: Chợ, Đường Lê Lợi, Phường Bến Thành, Quận 1, Hồ Chí Minh 700000, Vietnam
7. BITEXCO FINANCIAL TOWER
To get an incredible view of Saigon, there's no better place to visit than the Bitexco Financial Tower.
Address: Bitexco Financial Tower, 7, 2 Hải Triều, Bến Nghé, Quận 1, Hồ Chí Minh 700000, Vietnam
8. ARCHITECTURE
While you're in District 1, there are a couple of iconic buildings to check out in walking distance of one another like the Notre Dame Cathedral of Saigon followed by the Saigon Central Post Office.
NOTRE DAME CATHEDRAL OF SAIGON
Address: 01 Công xã Paris, Bến Nghé, Quận 1, Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam
SAIGON CENTRAL POST OFFICE
Address: 2 Công xã Paris, Bến Nghé, Quận 1, Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam
9. BOOK STREET
Next to the Saigon Central Post Office, you'll find a very unique street with delicious Vietnamese coffee and a whole lotta bookshops.
Address: Đường Nguyễn Văn Bình, Bến Nghé, Quận 1, Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam
10. TAO DAN PARK
To catch a break from all the city chaos, visiting Tao Dan Park is a nice place to stroll around in the late afternoon.
Address: Tao Đàn Park, Trương Định, Phường Bến Thành, Quận 1, Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam
11. FITO MUSEUM
A private museum devoted to traditional Vietnamese medicine.
Address: 41 Hoàng Dư Khương, Phường 12, Quận 10, Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam

    @@PeterandYen Last time I was down in the Củ Chi tunnels there were no lights, so had my own flashlight, but I turned a corner and right next to me on the wall was a huge spider bigger than my hand, and a small bat. Along with those giant red centipedes all over the floor. All part of the experience for sure. LOL. Also I don't think you mentioned that they had widened the tunnels for Western tourists, and that Ho Chi Minh got the idea for the tunnels while studying abroad, and learned about the Maori people, who dug tunnels and lived in them during the NZ Land Wars. I remember this being mentioned in a documentary but I should research more into it.

They're suppose to very soon.. kinda racing against a clock and new landmines popping up every day from new travel restrictions and bans 😅 we have to do 2 weeks self quarantine too (NZ requiring everyone to do it going into NZ). We were gonna do it anyway before it became a requirement but so there's been a lot of planning while we're overseas sorting through everything 😅 hope you're well and keeping safe!

I also visited a tower when I was there I think it was called the a&b building? Can’t remember, but all you had to do was buy a drink at the bar and the views were so good! HCMC is really bustling, so from above it was beautiful 😍. Your meal looked super yummy and fresh too 😋. I love the architecture of the last museum. So much to see there seems like you guys crammed it all in though ☺️. So many districts there. Will you be doing videos on another district also?
