Places in Vietnam VI
Ho Chi Minh City – The Real WorldHo Chi Minh City, the capital of Vietnam, was formerly called Saigon. And that name is so evocative that it conjures up a thousand jumble images.
Wander from the timeless valley to the ancient pagodas and the teeming markets, past ramshackle wooden shops selling silk, spices and baskets, before fast forwarding into the future beneath sleek skyscrapers or at designer malls, gourmet restaurants and minimalist bars. The ghosts of the past live on in the churches, temples, former Gl hotels and government buildings that one generation ago witnessed a city in turmoil, but the real beautiful of Saigon's collage is that these two world blend so seamlessly into one.
No mater what you want, Saigon has it all – from the finest hotels to the cheapest guesthouses, the classiest restaurants to the most humble street stalls, the designer boutiques to the scrum of the markets. And the Saigon experience is about memorable conversations, appealing tastes and moments of frustration. Lingering in this city long enough, you may just get closer into it.
