Pham Ngu LauThis area of Saigon, located in District One, stretching along
the streets of De Tham, Pham Ngu Lau and Bui Vien is host to most
of the budget travellers in South Vietnam. Often compared to the
more famous Khao San road of Bangkok, this district, similarly, is
an amalgamation of bars, guesthouses, restaurants, souvenir shops
and small travel agencies. Known also to be an expat playground,
these bars stay open later than most in the city. The prominent Go2
Bar is the most popular among tourists but dozens dot the area. Day
trips to the Mekong Delta or the Cu Chi tunnels are easily
organised in any of the travel agencies as well as transport to
most of Vietnam. Although prices vary the trips usually are the
same despite the agency. |
