Begin your journey at Notre Dame Cathedral, an impressive red-brick church with twin spires, built entirely with materials imported from France.
Just across the square, visit the Central Post Office, a beautiful colonial-era building completed in 1891, known for its grand architecture and historical significance.
Next, take a short drive to the former Presidential Palace (now known as the Reunification Palace), which served as the headquarters of the South Vietnamese government during the American War.
Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant, where you’ll get a taste of authentic Vietnamese cuisine.
In the afternoon, continue to the War Remnants Museum, which offers a powerful and often graphic perspective of the war, told through the eyes of the Vietnamese people.
Then drive to Chinatown to visit the stunning Thien Hau Pagoda, built by the Cantonese community in the early 19th century to honor the Goddess of the Sea.
Continue to FITO Museum, the first museum of traditional medicine in Vietnam. The exhibits provide a fascinating look into the history, philosophy, and applications of traditional Vietnamese medicine.
Conclude your day by relaxing with a traditional Vietnamese coffee or another local drink as your guide shares insights into daily life and offers a short Vietnamese language lesson before returning to your hotel.
