Ho Chi Minh City is AMAZING! 🇻🇳 Saigon 2023

Welcome to "Saigon in 2023"! In this video, join me on a journey through the bustling streets of District 1 in Ho Chi Minh City as I explore some of the city's must-visit spots. First up, we'll stop for a delicious lunch at a local eatery for some delicious Pho.
After the satisfying meal, we'll head to a nearby cafe to indulge in the delightful Vietnamese Coconut Coffee, a specialty beverage that's sure to tantalize your taste buds. From there, we'll make our way to the Walking Street, a vibrant and lively pedestrian area that's packed with shops, street performers, and plenty of locals and tourists alike.
Last but not least, we'll venture to the iconic Landmark Building, one of Saigon's newest and most impressive landmarks. With its sleek and modern design, this architectural masterpiece offers breathtaking views of the city from its observation deck. So sit back, relax, and get ready for a day in one of Southeast Asia's most vibrant and exciting cities.

[@houmanrosie]

Awesome! Thanks Arsalan :) 😎

[@KamramBehzad]

Visited Saigon in 2020 and due to possibility of travelling there for work again I thought I would check out newer videos. And on my first attempt I find a fellow Irani! Nice Houman jan. And I like you referring to the city as Saigon. Would love for everything to work out and go there again.

[@MrIvosgarcia]

Beautiful

[@dangluong9052]

welcome to Vietnam

[@houmanrosie]

Good to be here :)

[@khoaho1202]

Next time for breakfast u should try Com Tam Suon Bi Cha. The Saigonese usually eat that in the morning, not only Pho or Bun Bo 😉

[@houmanrosie]

Thanks for the tips!

[@quanghieu3378]

Very cool video about HCMC 😎

[@houmanrosie]

Glad you liked it Quang! 😎🙏🏼

@@houmanrosie appreciate it. Great quality for sure.

[@alexandwhite]

yikes most expensive pho ever haha jk i usually get mine next door to my apartment for only 40K VND

[@houmanrosie]

Haha i definitely splurged on that pho 😂 the 40k VND pho and bun Bo’s are the best!

[@gumerzambrano]

You can do all of Saigon in a few days. Not too many things or day trips to do

[@thevannmann]

That's if you're talking about the generic tourist things. It's a city of 10 million (officially), there's way more to do that's not listed in most guides.

[@ironmickey337]

Cool hat did u buy in Vietnam?

[@houmanrosie]

H&M in 🇺🇸😄

[@John_DaMan]

Just curious. have you lived in Vietnam before? Why does your vietnamese sound so good?

[@houmanrosie]

Thanks John! Yes, I've lived in Vietnam and my fiance, Rosie, is Vietnamese

[@jisoopark9440]

Hi, What apartment do you recommend to live in D1? affordable and quiet one bedroom would be great! Thank you!

[@houmanrosie]

I usually don’t like to live in D1 - there’s better options in D4 or D2. You can look into for example Millenium in D4 or places like New City in D2.

[@Gylfaginning16]

Great Video. I love saigon and the constant hustle and bustle. But how did you manage to get to the top/bar with your flip flops and the casual outfit in general? I was at landmark in summer 2022 with my fiancée (she was born im Vietnam and we had a friend with us who is vietnamese and lives in saigon) and the doorman wouldn't let us in because of our outfit. As for me I really stand out cause of my blonde hair. No denying that I'm a tourist. The guy said something like entering is only for people with money. I didn't know we looked that poor.

[@houmanrosie]

Thanks for watching the video! The only thing I can think of is that the security/doorman was a lot more chill when I went there. They didn't seem to care too much about the outfit or that I was wearing sandals. But something similar has happened to us before though so I think it depends on who is working at times.

[@Gylfaginning16]

@@houmanrosie Alright that seems to be it. Thanks for your reply :) I guess it is like in many situations in the world, where it depends on the person in front of you.

[@rafalefalcon]

In Saigon.. your money is your passport to EVERYTHING. If you want the doorman to let you in..hand him a $10 dollar bills ;)

[@Gylfaginning16]

@@rafalefalconThat indeed is a good tip. I heard from different people, that you should always have some money on you for such cases. Especially regarding cases where the police might stop you. A little money always helps :D

[@ChrissieSM]

The Landmark Sky view is quite expensive, even for foreigners, and prohibitive for the majority of Vietnamese.

[@nguyenquockhanhmmo]

Bạn có thể lên tầng 79 của Landmark uống caffee không cần phải lên Sky View tầng 81 đâu. Và khi bạn lên uống caffee thì không tốn phí lên đấy mà chỉ tốn tiền nước 100.000-200.000 VND ~ 5-10 USD. Và nó không đắt lắm cũng không cấm bất kỳ ai cả chỉ cần bạn ăn mặc lịch sự và mang giày là ổn nhé.

[@AsiaUnscripted]

It’s okay. The pollution kills me everytime.

[@houmanrosie]

So many motorbikes! 😄

[@peelypeelmeister6432]

There are too many foreigners in D1. I had to go to the embassy there. Nice set up, but too Westernised for me.

[@user-it6iw4lc7z]

Do people in the West and Japan criticize illustrations of girls from Russia and the Eastern Balkans?

[@BaoLe-ee6ed]

You won't get good VN food in a shopping mall. Best food is in a small family owned restaurant or on the street.

[@houmanrosie]

local food is definitely much better :) I agree

[@robertmcbrain]

sad American based travel

[@JWRame]

What a lazy video to show nothing but malls and the fake street next to the mall
