Ho Chi Minh Capital · City Guide
Ho Chi Minh Municipality has been an underdog in south-east Asia holiday destinations for many years, but more and more travelers are discovering this electrifying city as a hotspot for lane food, rich tradition, and vibrant nightlife. The city applications a unique combine of modern and traditional experiences thanks to its fascinating history and western influences into alternative facets of Asian culture.
Formerly, and up to this morning more commonly recognizable as Saigon, Ho Chi Minh Capital is the largest city in Vietnam. The city got its former call from the Saigon River that runs through the town and empties into the Soai Rap, eventually ending in the Pacific ocean. Nowadays Saigon is referring to the city center in District 1, the main tourist area, while Ho Chi Minh City refers to the entire modern city and all its rural districts.
Vietnam’s largest town has a miniature but vibrant LGBT+ scene that is attracting gay travelers, locals and expats alike. The majority of nightlife venues are located in the center of the city, Saigon, which makes them easily accessible by taxi
Ho Chi Minh City Queer Guide
Ho Chi Minh is a chaotic and confusing metropolis of Vietnam where either a motorbike will crush on you or you will get a crash on a endearing dancing boy. This quick moving destination is all about upscale markets for shopping, majestic pagodas and archaeological sites surrounded by beautiful landscapes and wildlife.
Vietnam is a very gay-friendly country, but do not expect open displays of affection in every corner. There are no anti discrimination laws enforced so be discreet and communicate yourself only in spaces where you are sure you can get intimate. Even if Saigon (Ho Chi Minh) is a big and fast developing city there are still signs of conservative character mirrored in its everyday hustle and bustle.
The queer scene of Saigon is pretty small considering the variety of venues and the friendly lifestyle. Gay-friendly eateries like Five Oystersand Journeys Sandwich Cafe are can be found anywhere, especially if you seek locals for friendly directions. For a more spicy slice of gay Saigon, gay spas like Yang Spa and Nam Spa are considerab

Motorbikes, lush beaches, motorbikes, limestone karsts, motorbikes, ridiculously tasty food, more motorbikes, rice terraces… and did we mention the motorbikes?
That's our takeaway of Vietnam summed up in one sentence. We fell in love with Vietnam and think it's such a rewarding destination for lgbtq+ travelers, offering a vibrant gay scene in Saigon, a wealth of cultural history to discover, instinctive wonders like the striking limestone karsts of Halong Bay, and one of the best cuisines in all of Asia. The Vietnamese people will also charm the pants off you – smart, savvy, charming, super energetic, and can't give a flying monkey's whether you're unbent or gay!
Oh and the part about motorbikes? They're everywhere! Almost everyone in the country uses one, which makes crossing the road in big cities like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City an experience in itself!
