Urban Adventure by Motorbike: Exploring Ho Chi Minh City’s Vibrant Central Districts on Aug 30, 2024

Exploring Ho Chi Minh City’s Central Districts by Motorcycle
On a warm sunny afternoon, I decided to embark on my motorcycle to explore the central districts of Ho Chi Minh City. The journey began in District 4, a small yet vibrant and historical area.

District 4, covering just 4.18 km², is one of the smallest districts in the city. The air here is fresh, with a cool breeze blowing from the Saigon River. I felt the peace and history of this place with its landmarks rich in history and culture such as Ben Nha Rong, Xom Chieu Church, Saigon Port, and the Ho Chi Minh Museum.

Leaving District 4, I crossed the Calmette Bridge to enter District 1, the administrative and economic center of the city. District 1 appeared before me with its towering skyscrapers, luxurious hotels, and large shopping centers. I felt the city’s vibrant and modern atmosphere. The cafes, restaurants, and fashion stores lining the streets created a lively and colorful environment.

Leaving District 1, I continued my journey to Binh Thanh District, located in the northeast of the city. Binh Thanh District, where I could relax and enjoy the fresh air. Binh Thanh is also home to many famous landmarks such as Landmark 81, Ba Chieu Market, Van Thanh Tourist Area, Binh Quoi Tourist Village, Thanh Da Peninsula, and major universities like Hutech University and the University of Transport, where I could see many students around, creating a youthful and dynamic atmosphere.

Finally, I headed to District 2, now part of Thu Duc City. District 2 is known for its rapidly developing new urban areas like Thao Dien and An Phu, where many expatriates live. I stopped at a riverside cafe, enjoyed a delicious coffee, and watched the sunset over the Saigon River. District 2 also has many international schools and modern shopping centers. I could see many families and children playing in parks and recreational areas.

The journey of exploring the central districts of Ho Chi Minh City concluded as I returned home. I felt the diversity and richness of the city, from historical landmarks and modern architecture to bustling residential areas and new urban developments. Each district has its unique characteristics, creating a vibrant and colorful picture of urban life.
