Saigon's grandest boulevard — a pedestrian promenade from City Hall to the Saigon River.

About this place

Nguyễn Huệ is Saigon's most prestigious boulevard — a wide, tree-lined pedestrian promenade stretching from the People's Committee Building to the banks of the Saigon River. At night, the fountain illuminates and locals gather to socialise, exercise, and enjoy the views. During Tết, it becomes the city's main flower market. The surrounding area is home to the city's best cafés, restaurants, and hotels.

💡 Local Tips

Visit after dark when the fountain is lit. Sunday evenings bring out the best street performers and rollerskaters.
