HO CHI MINH CITY (SAIGON) - BEST RESTAURANTS
Introduction
Ho Chi Minh City (former name Saigon) is the largest city in Vietnam and it used to be the Capital of the French colony of Cochinchina. Still today you recognise the past in its elegant boulevards and the historic French colonial buildings including the Reunification Palace, the Municipal Theatre and the Notre-Dame Cathedral. If you like to get the real Saigon experience chill in a large, colonial-style bar called Temple Club enjoying classic Vietnamese cuisine or join all expats in the Rooftop Bar at the Rex Hotel.
