Itinerary
Get an early start to see the city slowly come to life in the early morning. Begin with a leisurely ride by cyclo (a pedal-powered rickshaw) past Notre Dame Cathedral and the Central Post Office, before the usual traffic starts. Stroll through a city park where locals gather for their daily tai chi practice or a game of badminton and taste Vietnamese coffee at a scenic spot behind the Reunification Palace. Stop by the memorial dedicated to a Buddhist monk who famously committed an act of self-immolation in 1963. Then hop on the back of a Vespa with a local driver at the helm to visit a local street market and a secret weapons bunker hidden in a narrow house. Continue to the colorful flower market and enjoy a traditional bowl of pho at one of the city’s best noodle shops for breakfast.
