Our 1st stop during our time in Vietnam & Cambodia was a 2 night stay in Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon) which is in the Southern part of Vietnam & is the most populous city in the Country with almost 10 million people there.
We saw things like their Beautiful Opera House, the European style Central Post Office (built in the 19th Century) the Notre Dame Cathedral, the fun Ben Thanh Market, we visited a Lacquer shop which was awesome to experience & we visited the Reunification Palace (seen above) which became infamous as the site of the end of the Vietnam War... which interestingly, the Vietnamese call the "American War".
