An independent English language travel guide to the new Ho Chi Minh City.
After the 2025 merger, Ho Chi Minh City became a southern metropolis that holds three worlds at once: the Can Gio mangrove forest, the buzzing streets of Saigon, and the open sea of Vung Tau, Ho Tram, and Con Dao. Forest City Sea exists so English speaking travelers can explore all three with confidence.
We are an independent guide, not a government site and not a booking agency. We adapt our reporting from the Vietnamese edition at rungphobien.io.vn, rewriting every piece for international readers. Facts, prices, and hours come from the original reporting and public sources. Prices in VND change often, so treat them as a guide, not a promise.
All images on this edition are AI generated illustrations, created to depict each destination and dish. Every image is labeled as an AI illustration in its caption.
