Ho Chi Minh โฃ | Saigon's must-visit Notre Dame Cathedral & Central Post Office
After 11 years, I returned to the landmark buildings of Saigon, a must-visit spot, familiar sunshine and architecture, the aroma of baguettes๐ฅ and Vietnamese pho๐ in the air.
1โฃ Notre Dame Cathedral of Saigonโช๏ธ
The pinkish-yellow Catholic church, located right opposite the Central Post Office, is currently under renovation and cannot be entered for a visit. It is considered a landmark building of Ho Chi Minh, built by the French, with a history of over 100 years, resembling the style of Notre Dame de Paris, and is the largest church in Saigon. I visited it 11 years ago and remember the interior being very exquisite.
2โฃ Central Post Office
Built at the end of the 19th century, designed by the French, upon entering the post office, there is a statue๐ฟ of Ho Chi Minh, and inside, postal services are conducted. Around are circular seating areas๐, and extending on both sides are stalls๐ selling tourist souvenirs.
The hand-painted map boards๐บ on both sides are quite special, with a cabinet clock๐ฐ on the left side showing the time in different places. This is me, taking photos๐ท at the same place again after 11 years.
The center of Saigon, historical place and beautiful palace.
Classic building and interesting place to visit in Ho Chi Minh..There is a little souvenir shop in post central office..you also can experience to write and post some postcard to your friend๐…A must visit place in Saigon
The building is well maintained and operational. The inside is mostly occupied by souvenir stands. Souvenir selections here are more than other places in Saigon.
The Central Post Office in Ho Chi Minh City is like a beautiful old building with a mix of French style and important history. It has big fancy windows, cool details, and lots of space inside. You can feel the old-time vibe with special windows and old phone booths. โ๏ธ It's a great place to see the city's past and even send postcards. โค๏ธ One thing that I like best about this place is that there are so many stores inside that sell affordable and creative souvenirs. ๐ค If you like old buildings or history, you should check out the Central Post Office in HCMC. ๐ฅฐ๐
The Post office is a must visit in Saigon Ho Chi Minh City. The architecture is beautiful and there are many souvenirs to buy inside the building
