Sightseeing
To feel a sense of old Saigon, look no further than Rainbow Bridge – also called Green Bridge – which spans the Bến Nghé River between Districts 1 and 4. It’s the last remaining vestige of Gustave Eiffel’s genius in this city, built in 1894 to connect the downtown with the headquarters of the French Compagnie des messageries maritimes. For young lovers in Saigon – and now in Ho Chi Minh City – the bridge has always been a place to feel the romance.

The markets nearer to the tourist areas, such as the famous Ben Thanh Market, are dense with aggressive shopkeepers trying to force you to buy their underwhelming souvenirs. To see a market where locals actually shop, visit the Xóm Chiếu Market. It’s crowded, but the vendors are much friendlier. We recommend you try some local gelatin desserts while you’re there. And just a heads up: the market doesn’t open until 3pm.
