Sightseeing
The Central Post Office in Ho Chi Minh is a beautifully preserved remnant of French colonial times and perhaps the grandest post office in all of Southeast Asia. Located next door to Notre Dame Cathedral, the two cultural sites can be visited together and offers visitors a chance to imagine life in Vietnam during the times of the Indochinese Empire. The building was designed by Alfred Foulhoux and features arched windows and wooden shutters, just as it would have in its heyday in the late 19th Century.

Used to be the highest building until Landmark 81 came along. You can still enjoy a great view of Saigon from the top floor. Great restaurants choices like Hoang Yen Buffet, Hai Di Lao, Wrap and Roll
