Saigon's Green Lung right in the centre of traffic madness

Let's take a look at this long overdue post which I have been procrastinated. I am posting mainly on selected pictures taken during our 5-day free-and-easy holiday with very brief description instead of a long-winded post.

Ho Chi Minh City (previously known as Saigon) is a city in southern Vietnam. It's also popular for its French colonial landmarks, such as Notre-Dame Cathedral and the 19th-century Central Post Office. Food stalls line the city’s streets, especially around bustling Bến Thành Market.

Fitness or Exercise machines can be found in the park

 Be spoiled for choice in Saigon Central Market which offers variety of Vietnamese food and international cuisine

Oh.... we love this Turkish ice cream and peach lemongrass drink.  So refreshing....

Traffic in the busy street of HCMC.  It's a nightmare crossing the road here.....

Another must-see beautiful Chinese temple when in Raub, Pahang - Sungai Lui Chinese Temple/双溪内观音堂

A very longggggggggg overdue post... and a continuation from Part 3. Again, my apologies.....

Further up from the TrasRoadChineseTemple, Jalan Cheroh, Sungai Lui there is another Chinese temple at Kg Baru, Sungai Lui. This is also a must see temple when you are in Raub. The temple is big and beautiful.
