As you explore the heart of Saigon, you'll visit a unique street food spot called banh bo banh tieu, which holds nostalgic memories for many Saigonese locals and offers insights into the history of Calmette and Yersin, two disciples of Pasteur who made significant contributions to Vietnam's healthcare system.

Passing by Chua Ba Thien Hau, the Goddess of the Sea temple, you'll learn about the rich history of Chinese immigration to Saigon. To complete your local experience, you'll enjoy coffee at a popular Saigonese coffee spot, where you'll savor coffee in the traditional Saigonese way, making you feel right at home in this bustling city.
