The War Remnants Museum in Ho Chi Minh City first opened to the public in 1975. It was previously known as the 'Museum of American War Crimes,' and it serves as a sobering reminder of the long and horrific Vietnam War. There are photographs and military equipment from the United States on display. There's a rocket-launching helicopter, a tank, a fighter jet, and a single-seat attack plane. A standard bomb weighing 6,800kg is also visible. American soldiers used these weapons against the Vietnamese between 1945 and 1975.
The Reunification Palace, After the "Fall of Saigon" in 1975, the communist Vietnamese gained independence. Many attractions are reminiscent of that era. The Reunification Palace (previously the Presidential Palace) is an intriguing monster created in the 1960s with Soviet assistance. The tank that burst through its gates on April 30, 1975, symbolizing 'The Fall,' remains on the front lawn.
The Notre Dame Cathedral in Saigon, Known as the 'Paris of the East,' you'll also view the iconic twin towers of the Notre Dame Cathedral, built with bricks imported from Marseille, France, and stop at the ancient Post Office to get nice photos of Vietnam's vast, modern metropolis.
The Central Post Office in Ho Chi Minh City is a wonderfully maintained French colonial relic and maybe the greatest post office in Southeast Asia. The two cultural attractions, located next door to Notre Dame Cathedral, may be viewed together and allow tourists to envision life in Vietnam under the Indochinese Empire. Alfred Foulhoux designed the structure, which has arched windows and wooden shutters, much as it would have in its heyday in the late 1800s.
Ben Thanh Market, Your unforgettable tour of Saigon will allow you to view the best of the city without any stress. The aroma of cuisine and the thrill of bustling citizens filling the streets will entice you to dive into Saigon and beat your own rhythm.
