"Ho Chi Minh City in May" a Ho Chi Minh City Travel Page by mcds1970

HCMC was a very interesting city, with 3million motorbikes roaming the city i would say crossing the streets is quite an obstacle. they are indeed the king of the road in saigon. even cars and big tourist buses have to give way to these motorbike drivers. you would see some talking on their mobile phones while driving.. some are engaged in chit chat with other drivers.. some have their whole family riding with them.. some have boxes and cartons loaded either in front, at the back, or both... these drivers and their motorbikes are indeed a very interesting part of hcmc.
