A propos de cette activités
We will pick you up from your hotel in Ho Chi Ming City at around 8:00am and drive to the main entrance of the city’s Chinatown.
Our tour commences with a walk through colorful merchant streets and markets in Cho Lon “Chinatown” to learn how Minh Huong (Chinese origin) community has been integrating into Vietnamese life. The overwhelming atmosphere will give each visitor the feeling that they are in something really special. It takes up almost half of one of Ho Chi Minh’s districts!
During our walk we visit the (East-West Fusion) Francis Xavier Church, built for Chinese Christians which witnessed the last prayer of President Ngo Dinh Diem and his brother in the fatal morning of his assassination. Mingle beneath the large coils of suspended incense in Chinese Assembly hall, temple of Lady Thien Hau “Goddess of the Sea”. The decorative ceramic figurines, the altars and worshiping objects will reveal untold stories, such as the arrival of Marco Polo or legends of Yue Lao ”God of Marriage”.
Before we drive back to your downtown Ho Chi Minh City hotel, a selection of Chinese delicacies and the use of local means of transportation would complete your immersion into the culture. We will be back at your hotel around 1:00pm.
