Its red-brick , neo- Romanesque style and two 40-metre-high square steeples make it a central landmark. Visitors can attend mass held three times on weekdays and Saturdays and six times on Sundays.

Add: 135 Nam Ky Khoi Nghia , Ward Ben Thanh , District 1
Nguyen Hue Walking Street is a wide pedestrian strip completed in 2015 that runs from The People’s Committee Building down to Saigon River. It is a great public area to walk around at night and people watch. Oftentimes, there are public activities or gatherings.
- The Bitexco Financial Tower: s the second tallest skyscraper in Ho Chi Minh City to date. You can go up to the Skydeck on the 49th floor for a view of the city, or better yet, skip the Skydeck and head up to the EON Heli Bar on the 51st floor for drinks. The price to go up to the Skydeck is 200,000 VND, and drinks at EON Heli Bar are around the same price for a cocktail, so it is actually a better deal to head to the bar instead.
Address: 36 Hồ Tùng Mậu, Bến Nghé, Quận 1, Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam
* Shopping : Recommended Markets
- Ben Thanh Market - District 1: is one of the largest and more well-known markets in the area. Here, you can purchase a lot of local crafts, snacks, souvenirs, and fake branded products such as clothing and accessories, There are also food stalls inside where you can have a quick meal or drink, but do take note that the food here is not the best you will find in the city.
- Saigon Square is similar to Ben Thanh Market but with lower prices. Just like Ben Thanh Market, a lot of the products are fake brand name products but are of good quality. Since the prices are lower, it is harder to bargain here, but you can still haggle a little if you buy more than 1 item. The market is also air-conditioned, so it’s a great place to escape from the heat!
Add: 81 Nam Ky Khoi Nghia District 1 , HCMC
- Russian market: sell wooden roly poly dolls, Russian souvenirs, and warm Russian clothes, footwear, bags and household goods
