INSIGHTFUL SAIGON

It's one of the yummiest noodle soup I ever tasted! I don't know how they make it but it must be the herbs and the broth. No wonder why most of the Vietnamese are so skinny. I can live here easily!
The central shopping district of Vietnam. Lined with high-end signature brands. I prefer the Ben Than Market though where you will get all the signature brands at the least possible cost. Are they original? It's for you to find out.

The old post office. It retains the the facade of Gothic architectural style. Constructed under the French Indochina influence by Gustave Eiffel.











No matter how we tried to pose like locals, we can never capture the authenticity of a real Vietnamese. Very much engraved in their psyche is the experience of the past. Wounds have already healed, but the scars are still visible. Scar that no adobe photoshop can erase.
