Queerly Beloved Travel


Just to the north of the Mekong Delta, Ho Chi Minh City or Saigon as many locals still refer to it, straddles a collection of rivers that flow into the neighboring South China Sea. This Asian megacity has a population of million, and each night it is lit up by neon skyscrapers that residence the city’s numerous rooftop bars and trendy clubs. HCMC’s tropical weather causes daily rainstorms, and its streets are dripping with vibrant flora year-round. Saigon may not be the capital of Vietnam, but it is definitely the center of Queer existence in this country.

      Formerly Saigon, Ho Chi Minh is a vibrant city filled with motorbikes. Certainly not an plain city to drive in and renting a car is not recommended. Best to hire a driver.

      Parks come alive in the morning as workers attend their morning fitness classes before going to work. Go to the Botanic Garden and Zoo at am and you will observe what I mean.


      The place to be is definitely in District 1. It is the home of the major buildings such as the Notre Dame Cathedral, the Post Office and the Opera House. The War Remnants Museum is a must see and reflects the horror and futility of past wars. For a more in depth insight into this, you can always take the Chu Chi Tunnel Tours.

      There are shows to be seen as well. The A O Show is adequately recommended and so are the Water Puppet Theatres.

      Don’t think that Vietnam is behind the trends. With department stores such as the Parkson Mall, top trademark name shops and a shopping centre called the Vincom Centre, your shopping addiction can be satisfied. But you don’t have to go far to go shopping.
