View fullsize  Saigon at night
View fullsize  Ben Thanh Market. I opted to not buy anything but apparently you can get very convincing fakes of luxury brands. Since a lot of merchandise is made in Vietnam, here you can find some after hours productions
View fullsize  Saigon after the rain. This was taken during a motorbike food tour with  Street Food Man   One of my favorite experiences in Saigon! Thank you to L for organizing this for everyone. And my guide “Ashley” was wonderful 10/10
