A city in turmoil during the Vietnam War, Saigon, as the locals still call it, is now a lively metropolis packed with temples, grand boulevards, cozy cafes and scooters.

Visit the War Remnants Museum to see photos of the Vietnam War and its aftermath, including a moving exhibit of those affected by chemical herbicides like Agent Orange (28 Vo Van Tan, district 3, 84-8-930-2112).
