Aside from historical places, there are also other interesting places to visit in downtown Saigon. An example of which is the Ben Tanh market which is famous for foreigners touring the area. This market is even featured in my travel guide book.

It was an opportune time for me to unwind in Saigon because it was a festive season and the streets were adorned with decors being lit up at night and added to the city's spectacle.
