Sai Gon Central Post Office Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The Central Post Office in Ho Chi Minh City is a French colonial post office built in the 19th century. The exterior of the Post Office resembles an elaborate train station. Wherever you look, everything is intricately designed and decorated. The dates of the Post Office's construction (1886-1891) are inscribed beneath the large clock over the main entrance. Walk into the Post Office and you'll find a spacious lobby with a classically arching ceiling, round windows, hanging chandeliers, and stunningly gorgeous wall lamps, among other decorative features. Beneath the old map on the wall, there are classic phone booths from which you can make international calls. While visiting the Central Post Office, consider mailing a postcard home.

The building is well maintained and operational. The inside is mostly occupied by souvenir stands. Souvenir selections here are more than other places in Saigon.
The Central Post Office in Ho Chi Minh City is like a beautiful old building with a mix of French style and important history. It has big fancy windows, cool details, and lots of space inside. You can feel the old-time vibe with special windows and old phone booths. ☎️ It's a great place to see the city's past and even send postcards. ❤️ One thing that I like best about this place is that there are so many stores inside that sell affordable and creative souvenirs. 🤗 If you like old buildings or history, you should check out the Central Post Office in HCMC. 🥰😍
beautiful post office, worth going just for the architecture itself. you can purchase postcards to send to your loved ones from vietnam!
First time at the post office and there were many different postcards and souvenirs to purchase.
You will be overwhelmed by the wide 々 building and traditional architectural technology. Since it is a building influenced by France, it was a very good experience to visit while feeling history from such a perspective. Not only sightseeing but also postal services are also available. There were two souvenir shops in the hall, and stamps and postcards unique to the post office were sold at the central counter, which was full of vitality. Both the inside and the exterior of the building are very historical. It's wide 々 so it's crowded and difficult to walk ... I don't think there's anything, so I recommend it including that point!
It feels like returning to the TV series...especially the counters are still working and there are people working. After entering, there are small objects and souvenirs on both sides. I didn't post a postcard, just strolled around, felt it, to go when the door was opened, if only looking at the outside building, it was a pity.
