The War Remnants Museum: The museum was established in September 1975 in Ho Chi Minh City. It contains countless artifacts, photographs, and pictures documenting American war crimes. Such documents illustrate the killing of civilians, spreading of chemicals, torturing of prisoners, and the effects of the war on the north. Planes, tanks, bombs, and helicopters are also on display. Outside the museum are some rooms displaying cultural products of Vietnam. Over the last 20 years, over 6 million visitors entered the museum. Among this number, nearly 1 million were foreign visitors, including American tourists.
Thien Hau Pagoda: This is the most important pagoda in Ho Chi Minh City and serves for prayers to the Buddha as well as to the Chinese deity Thien Hau Thanh Mau, the goddess of the sea and patron of the sailors. The pagoda is most richly ornamented.
The Reunification Palace: In 1976, the Vietnamese Government labeled the Reunification Palace as a historic cultural relic. Every day, the building welcomes visitors from Viet Nam and abroad.Pupils and students, in particular, visit the palace to learn more about the nationβs history and honour.It is also now used as a government convention centre, and as a guest house for the Party, Government and HCM City Peopleβs Committee to receive international high-ranking guests or hold flagship conferences, workshops, seminars or exhibitions.
Local lunch is served at a local restaurant. After lunch, in the afternoon continue the visit in Ho Chi Minh City:
Notre Dame Cathedral: After the first French colonising force arrived in Viet Nam in the mid-19th Century, it took only 21 years before the country had a cathedral to match the hulking Gothic edifices of France itself. The cathedral is supposed to represent the glory of the French Empire. Yet, as is always the case with colonisation, this attempt to import French traditions into Viet Nam transformed the colonisersβ culture in the process. Even though the cathedral is built in a Western architectural style, it has a uniquely Eastern aspect.
Central Post Office located adjacent to the Notre Dame Cathedral is the General Post Office which functions as the central post office. Built in the 1880's, the French colonial building has changed little in design and is one of Ho Chi Minh City's major landmarks.
China Town in Saigon is the area called βCholonβ. Though tens of thousands of Chinese citizens have fled the country before and after the Communist victory of 1975, Cholon still is the most densely populated part of the city. Many pagodas grace Cholon.
Ben Thanh Market is the largest market in the city offering thousand kinds of local and imported products including clothing, dry foods, souvenirs and etc. The building was built in 1914 but still bright and shines with modern shopping atmosphere.

Cao Dai is an attempt to create a perfect synthesis of world religions. It is a combination of Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, Confucianism, Hinduism, Geniism, and Taoism. Established in the Southern regions of Vietnam in the early 1920's, the religion was officially codified in 1926. The functioning center of Cao Daism is located in the Tay Ninh province. Cao Dai literally means high tower or palace, a metaphor for the spender of spiritual growth. The central philosophy of Cao Daism pertains to the duty that the faithful perform for themselves, their family, society and the world at large. Much like Confucianism, this element of the Philosophy pertains to how the individual functions within the context of the community.
