Saigon River
You'll regularly catch glimpses of the Saigon River, which snakes its way through many districts of Ho Chi Minh City, while you're sightseeing. A Saigon Waterbus trip is a cheap and comfortable way to view the city from the river, and the "kissing bridge," aka Thu Thiem Bridge, has stunning views of the city at night. Sadly, the ancient shade trees that used to line part of the river along Ton Duc Thang Street were chopped down to make way for a new bridge.
