  • Tip Rating:
  • HCM traffic is just a constant flow of motorcycles with few traffic lights. Those that are there are mostly ignored. Do you remember the eighties video game Frogger? The only way to cross a street is to wade out into the sea of motorcycles and hope they miss you. Walk slow and delibrate and they will try to avoid you. However don't try this advice in other cities as you will get run over.

     Thanks for your visit to Tripoli, Jim. I was in Saigon (sorry HCM) in 1998, and liked it a lot. Colonial architecture is outstanding in Vietnam; ah, Hotel de ville is not a hotel: it is the city hall (former city hall here).

     Saigon looks like a fascinating city. It and Vietnam are high on my list of places to see someday. BTW, thanks for checking out my IL page.

     Hi Jim, thanks for visiting Hoi An VT page. I am still in the midst of updating my Hue page - want to complete my central vietnam page. I love Vietnam and I was surprised that I didn't visit that many places like you when I was in Saigon. Great write-up!
