My Trip

Saigon's biggest festival, spread over just a few days around Lunar New Year (usually late January to early February). Nguyen Hue transforms into a vast flower street, and the flower market and Cho Lon are dyed in festive colors. A limited course possible only in this season (note many shops and restaurants close).
