10 Reasons Why I Love Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

7 June 2024
I Love HCMC 12

Nestled in the vibrant landscape of Southern Vietnam, Ho Chi Minh City captures the hearts of travellers with its unique charm and a rich cultural tapestry. In this blog post, we delve into the heart of Ho Chi Minh City’s allure, focusing on the city’s remarkable hospitality and vibrant spirit that create lasting impressions on those fortunate enough to wander its streets.


Here are 10 reasons why Cherry Nguyen loves Ho Chi Minh City:

1) Rich History: Ho Chi Minh City, formerly Saigon, boasts a rich cultural heritage. Cherry appreciates the city’s historical landmarks, including the Reunification Palace, War Remnants Museum, and Notre-Dame Cathedral Basilica, which offer glimpses into Vietnam’s storied past.

I Love HCMC 92) Bustling Street Life: The streets of Ho Chi Minh City are alive with activity at all hours. From early morning until late at night, the streets are alive with vendors, motorbikes, and people going about their daily routines. Whether it’s the aroma of street food wafting through the air or the sight of locals enjoying their Vietnamese iced coffee, the energy is palpable.

Don’t miss the famous Ben Thanh Market, where you can find everything from fresh produce to unique souvenirs.

I Love HCMC 83) Culinary Delights: The city’s food scene is a delight for any culinary enthusiast. Enjoy a bowl of Pho at a local street stall, indulge in Banh Mi, or taste the myriad of flavours at one of the many night markets. Don’t forget to try other local specialties: Bun Bo Hue, Hu Tieu Nam Vang, Banh Xeo, Banh Khot.

I Love HCMC 2 14) Warm Hospitality: The locals in HCMC are known for their hospitality and friendliness. Engage in a conversation with a local vendor or receive a warm welcome from the staff at your hotel; the city’s charm is in its people.

I Love HCMC 135) Local Transport: Ride a Xe ôm (motorbike) or Take a Xích Lô for an authentic way to navigate the bustling streets or take a leisurely boat ride along the Saigon River to see the city from a different perspective.

I Love HCMC 116) Vibrant Nightlife: The nightlife in HCMC is second to none, with a range of options from rooftop bars like Chill Skybar to lively clubs and live music venues. Bui Vien Street is the go-to place for those looking to experience the city’s party scene.

I Love HCMC 157) Gateway to the Mekong Delta: Ho Chi Minh City is the perfect starting point for exploring the Mekong Delta. A short drive from the city will take you to lush landscapes, floating markets, and tranquil rivers, offering a serene contrast to the urban hustle.

I Love HCMC 148) Green Spaces: Despite its urban hustle, HCMC offers beautiful parks and green spaces like Tao Dan Park and the Saigon Zoo and Botanical Gardens. These spots are perfect for a peaceful retreat amidst nature.

Tao Dan Park is perfect for a morning jog or a leisurely stroll, and the Saigon Zoo and Botanical Gardens offer a tranquil escape from the urban hustle.

I Love HCMC 109) Architectural Marvels: Walking down Dong Khoi Street, you’ll see a mix of historic buildings like the Saigon Central Post Office, designed by Gustave Eiffel, and sleek skyscrapers that define the modern skyline.

The historic Continental Hotel is a prime example of the city’s architectural charm.

I Love HCMC 3 110) Festivals and Events: Experience the vibrancy of local festivals such as Tet (Vietnamese Lunar New Year) and the Mid-Autumn Festival, which bring the city to life with traditional performances, lion dances, and beautiful decorations.

I Love HCMC 9 1As we draw the curtains on our exploration of Ho Chi Minh City’s hospitality, it’s clear that this city has a magical ability to make strangers feel like cherished guests and turn visitors into storytellers. The genuine smiles, the traditions upheld, the warmth of the locals, and the seamless blend of the old and the new contribute to an experience that is as enriching as it is unforgettable. Ho Chi Minh City, with its open arms and vibrant spirit, ensures that every traveller departs not just with memories, but with a piece of the city’s heart.

Cherry’s Personal Favourite

One of Cherry’s favourite spots in Ho Chi Minh City is the Saigon Central Post Office. This French colonial masterpiece, designed by Gustave Eiffel, is not only an architectural gem but also a functioning post office where Cherry enjoys sending postcards to friends and family.

Why I am a fan of Ho Chi Minh City? 

Ho Chi Minh City is a place where tradition meets modernity, creating a unique and vibrant atmosphere. The city’s energy, the warmth of its people, and the incredible food are just a few reasons why I love it here. Whether it’s enjoying a quiet morning coffee while watching the city wake up or exploring its bustling markets, HCMC never fails to captivate me. It’s a city that embraces you with open arms and leaves you with unforgettable memories.

I hope this gives you a taste of why Ho Chi Minh City is so special to me and to many travelers who visit. If you haven’t been here yet, I highly recommend adding it to your travel bucket list!
