IMPREXXION: HO CHI MINH CITY

by xuessium - last update: May 20, 2006

..."The David that made the mighty Goliath fell flat on its face into a couldron full of ash. Come and see the place that the US thought it would impulverise with imperial might by bombing it carpet-style but scampered away with its tail between its legs. Watch how a generation of Vietnamese had erased the scars of war, eager to jump ahead on the train towards the future. Discover the unpolished diamond that is Ho Chi Minh City, and that lingering dream that was once called Saigon"...

 Good tip on the clearing of customs. I did not have a hotel name, but someone tipped me off to just pull one out of Lonely Planet

 Hi, glad to find fantastic photography and travel tips on VT, one of the best so far. I will definitely get a taste of Star Apple when I get to HCM.
