Saigon in one day

A loose shape for the day

• Ben Thanh Market, in the city centre, for a walk through a covered market.
• Saigon Zoo and Botanical Gardens (Thảo Cầm Viên), one of the oldest zoos in Vietnam.
• A riverside walk or a park when you want air and shade.
• Street food or a café when you are hungry. The guide app lists places to eat near the house.

Back at the house

You rent the whole house, not a single room. Three bedrooms each have a private bathroom. The kitchen is there if you want dinner at home, and the rooftop faces the river and the city skyline.

Ride-hailing apps such as Grab are widely used. Drink bottled or filtered water. It is warm all year, so many people keep outdoor time for the morning or late afternoon.
