    This statue is one of the attractions of the Ho Cho Minh Square. Surrounding it are beautifful flowering gardens, fountain, The Dragon Sculpture, and 2 signages with the name of the city.

    Note that the Square is located across from the imposing City Hall. Highly recommended to visit, good backgrounds for selfies.

    This Buddhist Monastery is about a 50-60 min cab or scooter ride from district 1.
    It’s a great place to spend 1-2 hours if you are interested in Buddhism or looking to capture some amazing photos.
    I hired a scooter round trip for about 300,000 dong and the ride there was amazing in itself!
    It would be very hard to find a way back without prearrangement.
    This visit was one of the highlights of my 1 month in VietNam

    Located within 3mins of walk from our hotel, this huge moat surrounded statue on a pedestal at the coastal boulevard depicting a legendary 13th-century Tran Hung Dao, grand commander of Thang Long during the Tran Dynasty.

    It was a sunny and warm day and we came by here for a photostop. We saw workers watering the beautiful plants and flowers at the park, clearing the weeds. It looked nice from a closer distance.

    However, there was no shelter/washroom here. And just opposite the busy road is the waterbus (cruise) station. And traffic here were peak all day round and you do need some "courage" to be able to cross the roads. Although there were traffic lights, no one seemed to bother about it and so it's of no use at all!

    Will not recommend this place for a visit that you must definitely come unless you happen to pass by here (or like us, staying very nearby), you can skip it with no loss to your trip to HCMC!

    Ornate temple and shrine structures within a nice garden which is used as a park. Worth a trip out of the central city. Take time to wander along the nearby hems while you’re in the area.

    Avalokitesvara is associated with many countries with different symbolic meaning. what i know is this statue associated with wisdom goddesses. The aura here is charismatic .

    Located in the front of the Ho Chi Minh City Hall, is a series of squares that run all the way down to the river, the first square dedicated to the man of the same name, is quite stunning with his proud statue as the centre piece, the fish (koi), in the surrounding ponds is a nice touch.
