Another day in Ho Chi Minh City


After the morning visit to ChuChi tunnel its time to wander around the city again...We just went around aimlessly and stop at random interesting stops we could find


downtown Ho Chin Min
Her favourite spot


We then headed to Parkson shopping mall as our friend indicated that there is also a Muslim halal food there. We went there to check it out


We didn't stop to have a bite there as we plan to have lunch somewhere else. So its off to the streets again




We then proceed to the city's General Post Office

Although its an old building but it is still being utilised as their post office since the colonial days. It's still busy with the hustle and bustle of activities. You feel like being transported 30 years back...how cool was that

People still uses snail mails instead of e-mails


they sold sou verniers here too 

The old telephone booth in the background

Making a call to the President??


Another pose please

view to the outside world

More of the city activities
Stall vendors selling rice noddles (i think)


Yeaa....I was here

more parks

Mixed with modern skyscrapers



The scenery besides the riverbank




Yep...that's the last edited pics of our trip to Ho Chin Min.....very colorful city, mixture of colonial buildings, easy to get around. We did not talk to many locals but generally they are friendly people.
Next - head back to hotel, pack up and hop on a plane and start working again (huarghhhhh.....boriiinggggg). But somebody had to earn more mullah for the next holiday trip...
