Ho Chi Minh City, formerly and still commonly known as Saigon, is the most populous city in Vietnam. Vibrating with
energy and innovation, the city is the economic heart of Vietnam and the main hub of the southern region. As a
cosmopolitan metropolis of the country, its dynamic cityscape combining the old and the new of Vietnam has made it
one of the most attractive destination for visitors.

built by the colonial French with materials entirely imported from Marseilles. Discover the magnificent neo-Romanesque
architecture as you take in the tranquil atmosphere inside. Then continue with Central Post Office to know more about
this significant landmark - one of the oldest buildings in Ho Chi Minh City and the busiest post office in Vietnam with
the neoclassical-style of the interior. You can also see painted maps of former Saigon in here. This Central Post Office
was designed and constructed in the early 20th Century by the famous French architect Gustave Eiffel. Last but not least,

times stretched as far as the Cambodian border and totaling over 120 km in length. Its complexity was beyond
imagination containing meeting rooms, kitchens, wells, clinics, schools, depots, trenches and emergency exits all aimed
for guerrilla warfare. The tunnels were deep and strong enough to withstand destructive bombings and self-contained
enough to outlast prolonged sieges.
