Ho Chi Minh City


View from hotel's room



I was away to Ho Chi Minh City during the long Holidays of Pchum Benh festival. This is my second most enjoyable holiday after Bangkok. Ho Chi Minh City is a very developed city, things and foods are quite expensive compare to Phnom Penh, although we spent USD in Phnom Penh and Local currency in Vietnam.

The food in Vietnam was so good! I had tried all the different varieties of their local food. The famous Beef / Chicken Noodle Soup and the local coffee was so great! The coffee taste was so strong and taste like the KOPIKO candy. I had already missed the different varieties of “Pha Wrap”, like Chinese dumplings. It looks and tastes good. Other food such as Mini Oysters, Spring Rolls, Soft Shell Crabs and the tasty soup with beef intestines.

We went for a City Tour on the second day. Passed through a lot of tourist attractions like Post Office, Notre Dome which is the French Colonial Building and the War Museum.
