Shawn, Nice pics of HCMC or Saigon. Those poor animals in cages. Had great beef noodles at Cholon Chinatown. Bring back memories. Cheers, SL
Hello Shawn! I loved Saigon too. Great page! Happy birthday from Finland!
On the HCMC page "is it OK to call HCMC Saigon", not widely known is that the area in the photo is in fact officially called Saigon, i.e. most of district one. One of the reasons that newspapers and mags have Saigon in their name
Ah, Cao Dai Temple, I missed that...must have been a great visit.
beautiful page on Ho Chi Minh... seems like you liked your stay there :)
excellent page on ho chi minh!
Wow, wonderful pictures and writing. I'm just dying for my return to Vietnam again. Well, I'm suppose to be studying for finals but ...couldn't help myself. I would definitely come back for some detail reading of your travel pages.
