Famous Attractions That We Will Visit
The Independence Palace.
Our driver and excellent tour guide will drive you to visit the Independence Palace, also known as the Presidential Palace. Now the Reunification Palace was once the presidential palace of the Republic of Vietnam. The Vietnam War came to an end on April 30, 1975, when a North Vietnamese Army tank crashed head-on into its main gate.
The Independence Palace
Therefore, it is now a popular tourist destination in Ho Chi Minh City. You will see two of the original tanks that were used to retake the palace are still parked there. The residence and office of the French Governor of Cochin-China were both located at Independence Palace. In addition to a command bunker, it also has secret rooms, verdant gardens, and antique furniture. Additionally, it continues to be used to hold significant events in Ho Chi Minh City, such as APEC summits.
Saigon Notre Dame Cathedral.
Moving forward Phu My shore excursion tour, we will visit the Notre Dame Cathedral. As you know, French colonists constructed the Notre Dame Cathedral in Saigon in the late 1880s. Furthermore, it is one of the few remaining strongholds of Catholicism in the mostly Buddhist country of Vietnam. They named it Notre Dame after they put the statue “Peaceful Notre Dame” into Paris Square in 1959. In 1962, the Vatican conferred the Cathedral as a basilica and officially named it Saigon Notre-Dame Cathedral Basilica.
The cathedral is about 60 meters high. Besides, it owns unique neo-Romanesque characteristics, including the all-red brick façade that they imported from Marseille.
Furthermore, it is situated in the heart of Ho Chi Minh City District 1 and has stained glass windows. Plus, it has two bell towers with six bronze bells that still ring today.
Jade Emperor Pagoda ( Ngoc Hoang pagoda)
also called the Tortoise Pagoda, is one of Ho Chi Minh City’s five most prominent pagodas. Additionally, a group of Cantonese built this pagoda at the start of the twentieth century. They came from Guangzhou province in Southwest China. Thus, it is a typical example of the Mahayanist branch of Buddhism that is extensively practiced in Vietnam.
War Remnants Museum
Ho Chi Minh City’s War Remnants Museum was initially opened to the public in 1975. It was formerly known as the ‘Museum of American War Crimes”, and it serves as a poignant reminder of the long and cruel Vietnam War. There are graphic pictures and American military weaponry on exhibit in this museum.
What’s more, there’s a helicopter equipped with rocket launchers, a tank, a fighter jet, and a single-seat assault plane. Besides, you can also see a conventional bomb weighing 6,800 kg. Between 1945 and 1975, American armies utilized these weapons to invade Vietnam.
Chinatown In The Big Market
The Big Market in Ho Chi Minh City is Vietnam’s largest Chinatown, with its origins dating back to 1778. In addition, it is also a location of immense historical and cultural significance. During the Vietnam War, the Big Market (Cho Lon) used to be a bustling black market where American soldiers sold issued supplies that the American Army provided. Today, the region is a renowned tourist destination, attracting a lot of domestic and international visitors. What’s more, it is an amazing area to admire classical Chinese architecture in its timeless beauty as well. Alternatively, the Big Market has many Chinese eateries, so it is an ideal spot to visit.
