Ho Chi Minh City Completely Surprised Me (Here's Why)

Ho Chi Minh City, also known as Saigon, is one of the most electric, chaotic, and unforgettable cities on earth. In this video we spend two days exploring everything from the 400 year old Ben Thanh Market and the haunting War Remnants Museum to the city's most unique hidden gems including a capybara cafe, a koi fish coffee shop, a flower market that peaks at midnight, and a pink Gothic cathedral that most tourists never find. We climb to the observation deck of Landmark 81, the 17th tallest building in the world, and eat our way through some of the best pho, street food, and local spots the city has to offer. Whether you're planning a trip to Vietnam or just want to see what makes Saigon so special, this is your complete guide to doing Ho Chi Minh City the right way.
