Why visit Ho Chi Minh City
Saigon moves on roughly eight million motorbikes, and the fastest way in is to take a plastic stool on a District 1 pavement with a cà phê sữa đá. Landmark 81 climbs to 461 metres, the War Remnants Museum and the Reunification Palace fill a heavy half-day, and the café apartment block at 42 Nguyễn Huệ hides a dozen roasters across nine floors. The Củ Chi tunnels sit 70 km northwest.
