Ho Chi Minh City is known as one of the biggest cities in Vietnam, with a population of around 8.993 million people in 2019. With such a large number of people, traffic jams are a common occurrence here. Here are some tips that you can use when you travel to Ho Chi Minh City:
- Walking Districts 1 and 3 are the common districts for foreigners to stay in when they travel to Saigon. If you choose these two districts, you can walk around to see the scenery or visit the tourist attractions. Besides, there are also many eateries nearby.
- Motorcycle Vietnam is often referred to as the kingdom of “scooters.” Children become familiar with scooters at a young age and start learning how to balance while riding as they get older. Most locals use scooters as their primary mode of transportation. There are many places to rent scooters in the city center, with prices typically ranging from $7 to $10 per day. The rental places usually do not ask for a license if you are a foreigner, but your safety is not guaranteed. Therefore, make sure you know how to ride a scooter or motorbike.
- Public Transportation In Ho Chi Minh City, public transportation is also essential. There are buses in every district, but they operate on a specific schedule. You can download the BusMap app to check the bus routes and schedules.
- Bicycle Bicycles are also common in many countries. In Ho Chi Minh City, we have a bicycle system controlled by the government. TNGO is a new app for public transportation. The bicycle system is arranged at 43 locations on the sidewalks of some District 1 roads. You can pay directly through the app if you want to use a bicycle.
