Heritage icons and modern high-rises stand side by side in Dong Khoi Street, leading down to the Saigon River in central HCMC.

5. Saigon River

As the Saigon River flows down to the South China Sea, it snakes through South Vietnam, bringing with it trade and travellers. For a romantic encounter, book a floating restaurant or dinner cruise. The Ho Chi Minh City skyline by night is sure to impress. Or how about a speedboat tour of the countryside? Head upstream for a buffet lunch or temple visit on Thanh Da Island. Go downstream to explore the Can Gio Mangrove Forest and Viet Cong-dug Cu Chi Tunnels.

6. Saigon Notre-Dame Basilica

Ho Chi Minh's Notre Dame Cathedral with its neo-Romanesque architecture proudly dominates the Vietnamese city's skyline. Along with French colonisation came Catholicism, and with Catholicism came the need for a cathedral. Work began in 1880 and took quite a few years to complete, with all bricks, tiles and windows being imported all the way from France.
