Nearby the Palace, you'll also see the colonial-styled Central Post Office and the Notre Dame Cathedral, built between 1877 and 1883. One of the city’s major landmarks, these two sites are worth a picture!

In the afternoon, explore the War Remnants Museum, which contains exhibits relating to the Vietnam War and the first Indochina War.

Next make a trip to the Jade Emperor Pagoda, also known as Tortoise Pagoda. This is one of the five most important shrines in Ho Chi Minh City.
