Crowded but unforgettable

Yes it's busy, but Museum of Vietnamese History is busy for a reason. Stay 1, 2 hours, bring small cash, and try the local food nearby.

Better than expected

Honestly thought Museum of Vietnamese History would be a tourist trap, but it really delivered. Highlight of our days in Ho Chi Minh City.
