Welcome to SAI GON
A city with two names, Sai Gon has been called Ho Chi Minh City since the reunification of north and south Vietnam in 1976. As the business and financial hub of the country, Sai Gon’s history stretches back hundreds of years from the Chinese influence of district 5’s temples and markets to the more recent French influence of Notre Dame Cathedral, central post office and the majestic Opera House. Vibrant and dynamic, Sai Gon truly is a city that never sleeps and offers visitors a wonderful glimpse into the spirit of a modern Vietnam.
