It was late in the afternoon on Christmas Day when I took this self-guided 4K walking tour around some of District 1 in Ho Chi Minh City.
I first ventured to Bui Vien at a time of the day before the street is turned into a raging party zone, and you can see some of the pubs that line the street. On weekends after 6pm Bui Vien is closed to traffic and the venues are pumping, the street filled with people.
I also ventured into a park where people were enjoying Christmas Day leisure time, though there was an agitated man walking around, which some of was captured here. Not understanding Vietnamese, I was unaware as to what he was shouting about and decided it was safer not to put the camera on him and let him be. No-one seemed overly worried by him, but he was loud. I then headed back towards the streets.
This was my first 4K walk around Ho Chi Minh and is a bit of an introduction to what it is like in District 1. Pretty busy.
