Financial Tower
Ho Chi Minh City, the largest city in Vietnam, presents a stark contrast to other Vietnamese cities. Its bustling, modern, and French charm is unforgettable. In the heart of Ho Chi Minh City stands a landmark building known as the 'spine of the city,' visible from anywhere in the city area. Ascending to its high-altitude observation deck, you see not only the charming scenery but also the soaring economy of the socialist country. This is the Ho Chi Minh City Financial Tower.
External highlights: The shape resembles a bamboo shoot, inspired by the national flower of Vietnam - the lotus shape, and is like a rolled-up lotus leaf stretching from the ground to the sky. The full floor-to-ceiling glass design stands in sharp contrast to the surrounding buildings.
Internal highlights: Take the elevator that ascends 7 meters per second, and in less than half a minute, you'll reach the observation deck. The fully transparent glass windows offer a 360-degree view of District 1 of Ho Chi Minh City and its surroundings, overlooking the meandering Saigon River. The view outside the window is also a perfect backdrop for taking photos.
The observation deck has a bar and café, as well as free seating. There are shops selling Vietnamese souvenirs and handicrafts, and a simple Ao Dai museum for guests to appreciate and understand the traditional Vietnamese costume Ao Dai.
Tickets: 200,000 Vietnamese dong, about 60 RMB. It is recommended to book online, no need to pick up tickets, direct verification with the electronic voucher.
Transportation: Since it is located in the city center and taxis in Vietnam are super cheap, a taxi ride within the city costs about 10 RMB.
Visiting time: Suitable all day, with shade during the day and super cool inside. Going in the evening, you can wait for a sunset and see the beautiful city night view.
was thinking of going to this or landmark 81. but this one was more affordable and you can watch landmark 81 from this observatory. worth a visit if you're in hcmc
It's a fine place with a good view and the riverside which looks amazing from the top of the tower and they have cultural clothes part too that shows the rich and phenomenal culture of the country overall the stuff was good and they can speak English well but they told us they will provide the water which they didn't and I also didn't ask too so I don't about that. For good memories you can also take pictures from the 1st-floor lobby and they will provide you upstairs with a nice background if
We had the incredible opportunity to visit this very nice sky viewing deck, and it was a breathtaking experience. The panoramic views from the deck were simply awe-inspiring, offering a bird's-eye perspective of the entire city below. The deck was well-maintained and felt completely safe, providing a thrilling but secure sensation of being on top of the world. It's a must-visit for anyone looking to see the city from a whole new perspective.#Vietnam #HCMC #Swptember 2023
Ho Chi Minh County's famous tourist punching place, the scenery is not bad, more than 200 meters high, you can have a bird's eye view of Ho Chi Minh City, I recommend everyone to go to punch in, there are front desk staff on the first floor, there are also guide staff, the financial tower provides free drinking water.
