Ho Chi Minh City (still Saigon to most people) offers a nice mix of modern development with traditional shopping and preserved, historical architecture.
The place to go for old (and replica) military surplus, Dan Sinh market. "Yes, special on dengue pills today!"
Turning plastic textiles into bags, etc...is a thing. The standard colors and font for small market signs, found all over the city, one remnant of the French period.
A holiday creche display outside the biggest church in Saigon, Notre Dame.
A few communist reminders dot the city, mostly murals. Gift wrapped tires.
One of the best preserved buildings from the French era, the main post office. Now complete with a big Ho Chi Minh portrait.
