Penang Hill, locally known as Bukit Bendera, is a refreshing escape from the heat and hustle of George Town. Reaching the summit, over 800 meters above sea level, is an adventure in itself, thanks to the iconic, steeply inclined funicular railway. While lines for the train can be lengthy during peak hours—a quick tip: consider the fast-lane ticket to save time—the view from the top makes the journey worthwhile. The peak offers spectacular, panoramic vistas of the island, George Town’s skyline, and the mainland. It's especially magical during sunset or when the city lights twinkle at night. The air is noticeably cooler, often dropping several degrees, providing genuine respite. Beyond the viewing decks, the hill is steeped in history, featuring colonial-era bungalows and diverse religious sites, including a mosque and a Hindu temple. The prime attraction, however, is The Habitat. This world-class rainforest discovery center features the Curtis Crest Tree Top Walk and the Langur Way Canopy Walk, allowing visitors to walk high above the 130-million-year-old rainforest. It's an immersive experience for nature lovers, rich in flora and fauna. Penang Hill is a charming blend of natural beauty, colonial heritage, and modern eco-tourism, offering something for every visitor seeking cooler climes and breathtaking sights.

So much of new development since I last came in August 2025. Tram service is good, organised, and efficient. Didn't have to wait for too long. The experience of going uphill and downhill in the tram is interesting. Once up there, you will be greeted with gentle and chill breeze, it's so refreshing. There are a few platforms for photo shooting and enjoying the view of penang island. A lot of souvenir stalls and there's a food courts where you can enjoy local delicacies. So many kid-friendly activities here. For this trip, I visited the Habitat, a reserve forest where u can take tour guide to bring you through the forest on the canopy bridge, it is well maintained and the scenery is just spectacular. We stayed here till sunset. What a perfect experience to enjoy the beauty of Penang.

Penang hill was literally the highlight of our visit to Penang island. The cable car ride and the view from the top are none to second. We were unfortunately late so we didn’t manage to visit the habitat which was a pity but maybe a good reason to come back.

Penang Hill is definitely one of the must-visit UNESCO sites in Penang! 🌿 The view from the top is absolutely stunning and the weather is super cool and nice escape from the city heat. Loved the tram ride up, smooth and scenic! 🚞 Great place to explore and spend quality time with family. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Penang!

Best place to overlook the whole Penang Island. We are lucky as it is low season in Nov and weekday, don’t need to wait too long for the cable car to go up. A refresh walk after raining too. 😌

Went up by train. Cool and breezy evening. Penang Hill offers a contrast to the warm and humid island. Great view of Penang city at night.

This hill is a beautiful place combination of beauty, heritage, modern eco tourism , breathtaking and many more. This is at the 800 meters above the sea level and it is away from the town. Very clean place.The hill is very steeped,one ca experience various flora and fauna,130 million years old rainforest etc. Lastly, reaching the peak itself is an adventure in itself. Thanks to the iconic steep railway service.

This is an interesting place to visit whether you're a history buff or not. It allowed me to peek into the lifestyle of the wealthy Nonya family. Looking at the artefacts and portraits was fun enough, but I would have loved it more if detailed descriptions and explanations were given on signs and boards. As it is now, the visitor has to piece everything together without being given a congruent story. Nonetheless, the mansion is beautiful and the musical show is very cute.

RM30 is the entry fee per person. Self-guided tours are available throughout the day. We bought the entry ticket after reaching there. Can spend 2 hours. Beautiful Mansion , 2 levels and multiple rooms to watch and see. Can get crowded and the family prayer room in the back has a disconcerting feeling. Must visit which gives a glimpse into Peranakan life and the grandeur. Thoroughly enjoyed it. And lot of photo spots to get good pictures. Only negative was the airconditioning inside the mansion and it got so stuffy to be inside which ruined the experience. Other than that, definitely recommended if you are in Georgetown.

I have visited many Peranakan museums in Singapore, Malacca and now here in Penang for the first time. One of the best kept Peranakan museum I have seen so far. Well designed mansions including family altar and very huge kitchen space that they turned into restaurant and even theatre. Many exhibits were a time piece of their time, trapped in the space of time so that we can visit and relate. Included art piece, kitchenware, furnitures, and even well taken photographs. Certainly the building made a good spot for photography and can see the many patrons who donned Nonya clothing and employed photographers to take good shot. Love the museum!!

Interesting tour of the mansion, was highly impressed with the English speaking tour guide, he was engaging and knowledgable. You can pay for a tour and spend as much time as you wish after exploring the rooms which is a nice touch. The tour lasts approx. 40-45 minutes. The only reason I didn’t score 5/5 was because the exhibits felt a bit modernised in places and the waiting area was very hectically managed.

An excellent place to understand the early 19th century Chinese peranakan culture, architecture and arfetacts. Open daily from 9am to 5pm. Visitors even can rent the nyonya costume for photos shotting. Impressive with the Jewelry display as well. Don't miss the antique selling hall for souvenir back.

Wonderful treasure trove of Peranakan artifacts. Amazing musuem guides who are passionate about the place. visitors are treated to a 40-minute song-dance-acting skit in the small auditorium, which is highly entertaining & engaging. The musuem shops are also interesting.

We visited this as Blue Mansion had no available spots. And it was beautiful piece of art and history. Highly recommended. There is option to rent traditional clothes for photos

Haven’t been to such an happening beach in my life. This has a totally different vibe. The fire show was amazing along with the music.

The Place to be. White Sand Beach. Crowded, commercial, but the place to be if you want a lively enviornment. Most popular spot to stay as well Plenty of Indian Food, Duty Free Shops Nearby - Walking Distance. 7/11 is also there on the road.

Pantai Cenang, Langkawi is one of the most popular and vibrant beaches in Langkawi, Kedah. Located on the western coast of the island, it is famous for its soft white sand, clear blue waters, and breathtaking sunsets. The beach is perfect for both relaxing and enjoying fun water activities. Visitors can go swimming, sunbathing, jet skiing, banana boat riding, or even try parasailing. The area is filled with cafes, restaurants, and souvenir shops, making it easy to enjoy local food and shopping. During my holiday on this island, I had a truly memorable experience. The food was delicious, with a wide range of options from affordable meals to more expensive dishes, depending on your preference. Car rental services are also available, giving you the flexibility to explore the island. There are many resorts and hotels, especially in popular areas like Cenang and Kuah. Pantai Cenang is also close to attractions like Underwater World Langkawi and duty free shops. In the evening, the beach becomes livelier with music, street shows, and beachfront bars. Don’t forget to buy souvenirs like keychains, chocolates, and local crafts before you leave. Overall, Pantai Cenang offers a perfect mix of beauty, adventure, and excitement—definitely a must-visit spot in Langkawi.

Pantai Cenang is the kind of beach that instantly lifts your mood. Performers spinning flames against the dark sea, music in the background, and crowds gathering with that shared sense of awe. The atmosphere turns magical without losing its relaxed island charm.

This is most famous and best beach in Langkawi. So much happening place with restaurant, local shops, markets everything at walkable distance. You will literally get everything you want .

Beautiful beach.. loads of water sports ... family friendly. Nights 🌙 turn into quaint drinking spots offering many different genres of music.

Nice beach with a long coastline, so nice for walks! It can get nousy from the jet skis so we stayed always at the end of the beach where it’s quieter. There are some jellyfish and all of them are typical normal round ones, most of them are in the low tide. We also had a vinger always with us in case somebody gets stung - that’s the 1st aid which is always nice to have with you if there can be jellyfish. I got stung once, didn’t hurt much, put straight some vinegar on yhe burn, all was good.

Amazing experience at the Langkawi Cable Car! This is one of the absolute must-do attractions in Langkawi. The cable car ride offers breathtaking views of the entire island, the lush green rainforest, and the turquoise waters below. The ride itself is smooth and takes you all the way up to the top of Gunung Mat Cincang — the second-highest peak in Langkawi. We bought the standard gondola tickets, which cost around RM 43 per adult and RM 33 per child, but there are also glass-bottom gondolas and VIP options if you want a different experience. The queue can get long during weekends or holidays, so it’s better to come early in the morning. Once at the top, the Sky Bridge is simply stunning! Walking across it feels surreal with the clouds floating around you. There are also several small cafes and viewing decks where you can take great photos. The 3D Art Museum and Oriental Village at the base are worth exploring too, making it a half-day activity easily. Overall, the Langkawi Cable Car is totally worth the price — well maintained, safe, and offers unbeatable views. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Langkawi!

An easy drive from wherever you are on the island. Plenty of public parking. Tickets are steep for what you actually get but Malaysians enjoy a discounted rate. Views from the cable cars are really really nice, especially the views of the waterfalls. I liked the actual cable car ride but was not impressed with the wait times for the skyglide (for the skybridge). You will spend more time waiting for the carriage than actually walking the skybridge itself. Also, the skybridge is a lot smaller than i envisioned. Still an enjoyable afternoon spent there. Walk around the shops and indulge in some ice cream after.

Smooth and easy experience – I visited on a Sunday afternoon with no crowds and almost no waiting time. Tickets cost ~85 RM on site (buying online can be cheaper and lets you book glass-bottom or VIP gondolas). The 10-minute ride offers stunning views over waterfalls, jungle and the Andaman Sea. At 708m above sea level, the top station has 360° panoramas, cafés and the option to add the Sky Bridge. Clean facilities, friendly staff, and an uplifting energy overall. A must-do in Langkawi – I left feeling expanded and inspired. ✨

The Langkawi Sky Bridge and Cable Car is one of those rare experiences that genuinely takes your breath away. The cable car ride glides smoothly over lush rainforest and dramatic cliffs, offering views that keep widening with every passing second. Reaching the top and stepping onto the Sky Bridge feels surreal the curved walkway hangs above deep green valleys with the Andaman Sea shimmering in the distance. The cool breeze, the height, and the sheer scale of the scenery create a moment you don’t forget easily. It is equal parts thrilling and peaceful, and absolutely worth making time for during a Langkawi trip.

The Langkawi SkyBridge Cable Car is absolutely incredible — easily one of the best things to do on the island. The ride up is stunning, with amazing views over the jungle, waterfalls, and coastline. It’s high, smooth, and genuinely breathtaking. At the top, the views are unreal — you’re literally above the clouds at times. The SkyBridge itself is impressive and worth walking across for the full experience. The weather changes quickly up there, which actually makes it more dramatic — one minute sunshine, the next mist swirling around you. Everything was well organised and felt safe. We went in October and it wasn’t too crowded, which made it even better. A must-do in Langkawi.

Visited the Sky Bridge, Sky Walk or Eagle's nest, and Sky Cab in Langkawi, and it was honestly one of the most breathtaking experiences ever. The cable car ride up was thrilling, with stunning views of the rainforest, waterfalls, and the blue ocean stretching out endlessly. Walking along the Sky Bridge and Sky Walk felt surreal - the view from up there is simply out of this world! You can literally see the clouds drifting by. It’s a must-do experience in Langkawi - a perfect mix of adventure, beauty, and pure awe. The videos are must watch here.

I recently visited the SkyCab in Langkawi and, overall, it is a beautiful attraction with stunning scenery and a memorable experience. I’ve enjoyed the cable car experience in Genting Highlands as well, and Langkawi’s views are equally breathtaking on a clear day. However, I would like to gently highlight one point for consideration. During my visit, the weather turned rainy and quite stormy, and the cabin began swaying noticeably from side to side. Many passengers — myself included — felt very scared. In addition, the cabin was dripping, and rainwater was entering inside, which added to the discomfort. Because of the heavy rain and fog, it was also difficult to appreciate the view or see anything outside. I went on the SkyCab based on the assumption that if it was open, conditions were safe. However, safety should always come first. We should not put anyone’s safety at risk in order to maintain operations or benefit financially from tourism. With this in mind, I believe it may be worth considering temporarily closing the SkyCab during bad weather conditions, just as the SkyBridge is closed during strong winds or rain. I say this with full respect and understanding, as the attraction is otherwise exceptional.

We absolutely loved our 4-hour tour of Kilim Geoforest Park — it was the perfect blend of adventure, nature, and fun for the entire family. From the very beginning, the experience was seamless and captivating. Our journey started at the Bat Cave, where we explored fascinating limestone formations and got an up-close look at the bats in their natural habitat — both eerie and exciting! The kids were intrigued and amazed, especially with the little torchlight adventure through the cave. Then came one of the biggest highlights: snorkeling in crystal-clear waters. It was truly magical! We even had the chance to feed the fish while snorkeling, and it was such a marvelous experience — the moment we began offering food, we were surrounded by colorful fish gently swimming around us. The kids were beyond excited, laughing as the fish got close, creating a moment we’ll all remember. We wrapped up with a relaxing stop at the floating restaurant. Though we weren’t very hungry, we enjoyed some fresh juices, and the kids happily munched on French fries. It was a peaceful spot to unwind, feed the fish in the enclosed pools, and just enjoy the serene surroundings. Tips for future visitors: • Bring enough water and snacks for the kids — the excitement and sun can tire them out quickly. • Take some bread with you — perfect for feeding the fish, both while snorkeling and at the restaurant. • Don’t forget sunscreen — you’ll be out in the sun quite a bit, especially during snorkeling. • Bring your own snorkeling gear if you have it. Otherwise, you can rent equipment on-site. Overall, Kilim Geoforest Park gave us a beautiful mix of adventure, education, and fun. A fantastic experience for families — we’ll definitely be back!

A must-visit natural wonder in Langkawi! Kilim Geoforest Park is one of the most breathtaking and educational experiences in Langkawi. The entire boat tour through the mangroves is absolutely mesmerizing — a perfect mix of stunning scenery, wildlife, and peaceful nature. The limestone formations rising dramatically from the water are a true sight to behold, and the lush mangroves create a calm and refreshing environment. Our guide was very knowledgeable, explaining the park’s ecosystem, mangrove trees, and wildlife in detail. We got to see eagles swooping down to catch fish, monkeys near the riverbanks, and even some bats resting in the dark caves. The stop at the Bat Cave and the floating fish farm was really interesting and added variety to the trip. The boat ride itself was smooth and enjoyable, winding through narrow mangrove passages and opening up into wide lagoons with turquoise water. It’s also a great spot for photography — every turn offers a postcard-perfect view! What makes Kilim Geoforest Park truly special is how it combines nature, education, and adventure in one experience. It’s suitable for families, couples, or even solo travelers who love nature and want to see a different side of Langkawi beyond the beaches. ✅ Tips: Book a shared or private boat tour at the jetty (various price options). Bring sunscreen, hat, and mosquito repellent. Go early in the morning to enjoy cooler weather and fewer crowds. Don’t forget your camera — the views are spectacular! Overall, Kilim Geoforest Park is a must-do experience in Langkawi — a UNESCO-recognized treasure that showcases Malaysia’s rich natural beauty at its best

Amazing experience. Lots of activities like fish farming, eagle spotting and feeding, lil tour in the Andaman. There are more options to explore too like kayaking, bat caves etc. The boat rides are available as shared option or private boats too. The boat driver explains everything so carefully. Totally recommend. Depending on your time, you could select time duration too but that may not be possible in case you take shared ride option.

Really beautiful mangroves. We got to spend time enjoying the mangroves by kayak and seeing the eagles. We also saw a monkey and 2 snakes which I was less thrilled about and when we were at the floating restaurant there was a family of otters frolicking nearby. Humans ruin the bat cave by not following the rules as there were people talking VERY loudly and shining bright lights everywhere despite the sign at the entrance saying not to do these things.

No regrets to join the 2 hours mangrove tour. Bought the tickets through kilim website. Is a great , amazing and wonderful experience! The boatman is friendly and explained everything in details. Enjoy it a-lot and highly recommend to visit this!

We enjoyed our visit here. However there were a few issues. We wanted to see the crocodile cave as we thought there were crocodiles in there. But we came to know that there was a small cave with some crocodile-shale rocks. Even we could not see that since there was tide in the water and we even didn't go inside the cave. But we paid for this. Also, we went for snorkeling. It was too short. Around 15 minutes and the water was so unclear that nothing was visible. See the video attached. The boat man, though, was very friendly and helpful explained a lot about everything and we enjoyed. The fish farm was nothing insteresting. So small and not many fish. All normal and we didn't find anything interesting

Must do . It's has some amazing views. Take a private one for 4 hours. It's great. Didn't like Fish farming much as it was very smelly. Mangrove and bat caves were good and so was eagle watching. Visit to beach is a must do in Andaman ocean . Do visit the UNESCO heritage cave which is just 20 steps walk. It's scary but it's a good visit. Do checkout the sleeping beauty bed. It's a secret. And do read the mystical story of Chinese queen and rome prince . You will see a walk path made in middle of ocean joining beach. DO NOT Walk on the boat platform . It extremely slippery and there is no support to save you from getting inside ocean. I almost lost my balance. Do not walk on platform at end of walk. Posted pic for your reference .

✨ Phra Nang Cave Shrine – Where the sea meets the spirit 🌊 Hidden at the edge of Railay Beach in Krabi, this sacred cave tells a story older than time. Locals believe it’s home to Phra Nang, the princess goddess who protects fishermen and grants blessings to those who visit with faith. Colorful offerings, wooden carvings, and the sound of waves create a magical calm inside the limestone cliffs. 🪷 Every corner feels alive with legends and prayers carried by the sea breeze. Here, nature and belief blend into something truly peaceful — a reminder that beauty isn’t just seen, it’s felt. 💫

Kayaked here from railay beach, in about 20mins! Beautiful and secluded, blazed a huge J under some beautifully positioned palm trees etc for some well needed shade. The water was beautiful, clear and warm and definitely worth the kayak trip to this beach! Also possible to explore both the caves at either end of this beach so well worth spending a day here if coming from Ao Nang.

It takes 40 minutes to walk from Railway beach. It is much nicer than Railway beach. Along the way, you get to see some interesting rock formations and there is a rope you can climb (need appropriate footwear, as it is muddy and slippery) but there is a nice viewpoint and a lagoon at the top. Once you arrive at the beach, you can see monkeys and some lizards. People rock climb there too which is interesting to watch

Beautiful beach accessible from Railay East. Caves , rock wall climbing and chilling on Beautiful Phra Nang beach are key attractions. Go early or face massive crowds when securing a spot on the beach. No restrooms Handicap possible. Final take ..RECOMMENDED BUT AGAIN GO EARLY.

Awesome beach. Beautiful fine sand and lovely water. Sheltered in a bay so no big waves really to be concerned about and a great place to either sunbathe or swim. Sunsets are beautiful. Well worth the visit.

Tucked beneath the cliffs of Phra Nang Beach, Krabi, lies one of Thailand’s most mysterious and sacred spots — the Phra Nang Cave Shrine, also known as Princess Cave. Legend says an Indian princess was once shipwrecked here, her spirit now guarding the cave and granting blessings to those who come with faith. Inside, you’ll find hundreds of wooden lingams — offerings symbolizing fertility, prosperity, and safe voyages. The mix of ancient belief, sea breeze, and divine mystery gives this cave an energy you can feel in your bones. 🌊✨ #PhraNangCave #PrincessCave #KrabiThailand #ThaiMythology #SpiritualThailand #FertilityShrine #WondersOfThailand #TravelLegends #KrabiDiaries #ThailandCulture

A quiet beach of your own with few tourists making it a can’t-miss spot in Krabi. This pristine beach stretches afar from famous Pranang Spirit Cave till the end of the beach with high limestone cliffs. Beautiful Soft sand and clear sea water with multicolor green to blue sea will make your day the most relaxing one. Be sure to spend a lot of time lingering leisurely. During low tide you can simply walk to Happy Island just across the shore.

We booked a ferry from Krabi to Railey Beach. There is a little booth near the docks that sell the tickets and tell you the hours that the ferries run. Once a wooden dragon boat is full it heads out. The boat ride was awesome. Open air and smooth. It was one of my favorite parts island hopping during our trip. When we arrived we wondered until we found a hotel that served breakfast. There was a reasonably priced buffet and we ate there. We spent a few hours at the beach, swimming and enjoying the sun. We saw the rain coming and decided to head to bar and grab a drink. Overall it was a great day, and I highly recommend.

We took long tail boat from Ao Nang at 8:30. We were there before 8:00 but if a group came, they had priority. It was a bit chaotic how the boatmen were organizing the boats. After 30 min we could board. It took 15min and cost 100bhat per person. We were 12 on the boat. When coming back there was 1 more couple waiting. Each of us paid 200 baht and we could go immediately back. West Railay beach is nice with stunning views. Inside the “village” it’s already a bit messy. To go there for 1-day trip ok but I wouldn’t stay there for longer. For cat lovers just check the pictures 😻

Really gorgeous beaches, yummy food, wildlife, and almost everything you need. Cool hippie vibes by the west side. I enjoyed the place and was only there for a few hours. Would love to come back and stay on this side of Krabi for a few days.

Beautiful spot. The swim area towards the cliff has a quite rocky bottom and is shallow at low tide. Further towards the boats the bottom has far more sand and is a nicer walk out to swim.

Railay beach is so beautiful. Especially during the sunset days. They have beautiful long tail boats and the scenery looks wonderful. You can get the long tail boats from Ao Nang to Railay Beach at 200 return. Last boat is at 6.30 PM. Get a boat so you will catch the sunset.

Gorgeous beach but recommend carrying beach shoes to avoid getting hit by rocks especially when going for a swim. The water is nice and warm and sandy patches are good on the beach.

The beach is really relaxing with magnificent views. Has lots of stuff to do, do not stay there for 1 day, stay for more. There is so much to do and see. The first priority place that I'll recommend to you if you will go to Krabi. You can only get there by boat. Its a piece of land surrounded by mountains and cliffs. You will need to pay if hotel doesn't provide a free boat to your destination.

Great walk. Please note its 400baht no atm etc nearby so you need take cash. The walk is great this is my second time here. The pool where you can swim does get very busy so i highly recomend leaving very early they say it opens from 10 but when we got there there were already heaps of people walking back i would say try and get there around 9am min. Also do the full walk past the swimming area to the blue pool its a great walk and worth the visit since while your there. No many people do it so its relaxing and only takes 15min enjoy

A place for nature lovers. A little bit far from Krabi but good to go there. You walk about 1 km from the entrance to emerald pool and you can walk more to the blue pool. Everything is beautiful. You feel the jungle. Its worth the effort.

We got there 10 minutes before opening (which is at 8:30) but they let us in anyway. There are 2 routes to the emerald pool, one scenic through the swamp (1000m) and one following the road (800m). We had the pool for almost ourselves for about 20 min, then it got busy real quick. The rocks are extremely slippery but the water is very pleasant. Blue pool opens later and it is another few hundred meters walk to get there.

So pretty, you have the choice of taking a nature walk to see all three pool or to take a straight road to the emerald pool, the nature path is 1km and the straight path is 800m, I personally reccomend taking the nature path and taking your time, the walk itself is beautiful and you get to see all the pools before having a nice swim in the emerald pool. It's also close to the hot springs that you can enjoy on your day trip

What a magical place it is! The water was super beautiful! You just can’t take your eyes off it. Emerald pool and blue pool both are amazing! And it’s a must to go in the pool . It’s an whole experience

My friend and I had an amazing experience at the Emerald Pool in Krabi. The nature trails offered beautiful scenery, and the reward was a refreshing swim in the truly crystal clear, vibrant water. It’s a stunning natural wonder that you absolutely must see! ​We booked our seamless one-day trip through Klook and highly recommend it for an easy excursion.

This place is pure paradise. The water is a stunning emerald green and crystal clear, and there's a unique hot waterfall that cascades into a natural pool. The walk to get there is just as amazing, taking you along a comfortable path through a lush, vibrant green jungle. It's a breathtaking and memorable experience that I highly recommend.

Overall park itself was big and beautiful and elephants there were also impressive. Mobility service was also great convenience but.... too much dinosaurs even some are artificially created one... was... not really great. May kids are like this but not for adults tourists. If you feel tired by heat then visit BigC

Well one of the must visit place in Pattaya. You can visit here with your family or friends and spend some quality time. It is away from the main city ,you can book a cab or any group tour. But you can easily get Grab/bolt. This place needs your full day to explore. This place is good for childrens. Tickets should be book in advance.

If you are three lover and interested in knowing different varieties of tree plants, flowers, this is the place for you to go. It’s huge categorised in proper manner. Be ready to walk more. Spend time over there or else you can just take a tour from outside (you won’t be able to see much from outside). The elephant show place is also nearby, so if you are planning to go over there, then take little extra time to visit there as well. It can be a day affair.

The one of the best tour scene for foreigners. It’s not only the gardens, but there are so many artistic works on the walking zones. We encountered the heavy rain during the day which, however, we were dry due to covered sky gardens. The food in the cafeteria was good and the drink is perfect made. The dinosaur zone is vivid and educational. Amazing that I never saw such around the world. The best price, of course are comprehensive one in the world. In the addition the folk dance show as well as the elephant show are so well organized, and the elephants are well trained and so awesome in that and very entertaining. I would recommend to come next time with the kids or grandkids. Unfortunately, we don’t have enough time to finish all to comers. I highly recommend to everybody who stays few days in Pattaya.

For the show in the theater, only the first part of it worth seeing, showing about the traditional Thai provience clothing's and dance. The second part is some old pop song with fancy dancers. Other places of this garden is too big to walk, although you can take the sightseeing mini bus, but only you will see some concrete dino and animal statue. Food inside is good and cheap, no worries.

Amazing place with Art of Intelligence...... Its a suitable to all where you have cultural show , elephant show , park visit , various plants / trees , amazing art work advanced technology used for demonstration. ... Fabulous.... Amaong top 10 beautiful parks for a very good and genuine reason..... Must visit

As much as garden is impressive and I really enjoyed visiting it, I didn't realise they keep elephants on hand and they let people ride them. I cannot watch cruelty like that! I got really upset when I saw staff member training young elephant to be ridden on and was hitting it with a stick in the head. Poor animals so abused and frightened. Garden might be the most amazing, I post photos, but I will never visit it again. Not contributing to animal cruelty

I don't think it's suitable for families, but it's a good place for single people. It's fun. You can have a good time.

Once in a lifetime experience. If you are like me who does not drink and do that stuff, visiting walking st is a must experience and only a one time experience but if you love doing ADVENTOURUS thing and its a heaven for you😅😂

Walking Street is the true living of Pattaya at night time. It actives more after 22:00. Find many more activities on the street. Best clubs and bars are here. If you wanna go with a family or a group. Go before 21:00 and you can check out whole street essily. Most of the Club entries are free. Nasha, Jalwa and many more clubs are premium.

Best place for night life city

It’s maintained neat and clean with lots off clubs including russian, indian and other local clubs are there to enjoy with beautiful girls.

Best night life ever. You will find everything here. Girls, Bar, Massage, Beach, Dance, Private shows, Swimming pools. Night is the best for this street

Quite heppening street in patraya, Night clubs, Go Go Bars, Discos, Gentleman clubs..the vibe of this street is different..

The Sanctuary of Truth is absolutely breathtaking. The entire building is made of intricately carved wood, and seeing the craftsmanship up close is incredible. The guided tour was informative and helped explain the symbolism behind the design. The seaside location adds a peaceful atmosphere, and the photos came out amazing. There is some ongoing construction, but it actually makes the experience even more interesting since you can watch artisans working in real time. Overall, one of the most unique and memorable attractions in Pattaya. Highly recommended!

If you ever go to Pattaya, This place is a must visit. You may think it's just a temple but once you look at it with your own eyes, you will change your perspective about it. The art in the temple is commendable. Every inch here makes you wonder. Can't even imagine how they made it all the way. Most importantly they never used any concrete or civil joining items to make this temple, it's just wooden joint technique which holds this massive temple. Even 6 hours won't be enough to admit it's architecture beauty. Must must must visit place, never miss it.

Absolutely stunning! The Sanctuary of Truth is one of the most breathtaking places I’ve ever visited. The entire structure is hand-carved wood, and every corner has incredible detail and symbolism. It feels more like stepping into a living piece of art than visiting a temple. If you’re in Pattaya, this is a must-visit.

I would have given 4 starts if it was not so expensive! This used to be free as it should be for a place of worship and not exploiting the tourists. 500 baht is a very big amount! All the temples are using the tourists to make big money. I would understand reasonable entrance fee but 14 euro is too much! Also the staff is hustle and you are obligated to go via a tour guide and special hours with your chosen language. We preferred to see the place on our own and in peace. Also very expensive restaurant. They even charged us 10 baht for ice in our very overpriced drinks we bought. All the statues are half naked but people are obligated to cover up, this part we did not get at all.

Any trip to Pattaya is not complete if one doesn’t visit the Sanctuary of Truth Museum. It’s an astonishingly beautiful structure which is made entirely of wood and has wonderful sculptures and wooden carvings inside teaching the visitors the philosophy of life. One can also try out the Thai Traditional costume for an hour and take pictures. There are different activities within the vicinity of this museum that visitors can try like feeding the animals, horse riding, boating etc and also a number of cafés and restaurants to satisfy your food cravings, as well as a souvenir shop if one wants to buy souvenirs.

An amazing structure which is well worth the visit. A one hour tour but you could spend another 2-3 hours admiring the architecture and carvings. There are food stalls and foot massages available and an amazingly tranquil river next to the temple grounds to have a nice meal and drink while soaking in the atmosphere. It was quite a trip from Bangkok city but well worth the effort to view it. Only drawback is that they have animal rides in the form of horses and elephants and I feel sad for the forlorn looking animals made to serve so that their masters can earn some money. Temple wise - it's absolutely majestic. From the same people who designed the awesome White Temple in Chiangrai.

Must visit place in Thailand. Its completly built by wooden. Includes indian, chinese and thai culture and history carvings. I recomend every one to visit this. Entry fee is really woth and dont miss to wear full dress for ladis (Shoulders and knees should be covered) no shorts for boys (to wear full pant). If you come with short dress you will have to refundable deposit of 200 thb and get the cloth for boys and girls.

Tops Supermarket is located on level G of MBK. Great selections of groceries. Both locally and import products are all around. They do have fresh bakeries and Arigato cafe at the front entrance too.

An easy place to shop. Large department store tops supermarket, lots to keep you busy, during this visit one thing I noticed everything’s price is up double from last year. This is so disappointing. It’s was one my favourite super shop in bangkok

Good supermarket located in MBK. Staff are nice and helpfull 🙂🙏🏻

Tops Supermarket is conveniently located at the MBK center. It is hidden amongst the pop-up stalls and situated at a corner of the shopping center. This big supermarket carries lots of groceries and household items. Bought yogurt drinks but one of them had turned sour. The packaging looks decent but do take care when consuming food/drinks.

MBK Shopping Mall is one of the most popular malls in Bangkok. Downstairs there is a large and good supermarket. Fresh fruits are sold here, I think this market is good and complete.

Top is my favorite spot ever but today the cashier is really uncomfortable for us. Why they can't smile a bit and make her face as mad on us.

Inside MBK Center, many various food, and halal food. There are praying room for muslim close to Tops Market and Food court

The zoo is very pretty , fun and really big . Had an amazing time with my family . I recommend rent the golf cart which will make your trip even more exciting. Highly recommend to those who want to have close encounters with animals. You can buy feed for the giraffes, elephants , deer , capybara and experience feeding them . We had a wonderful day . Must visit 👍👍

Great zoo, a good place to spend the whole day. We bought a tour in Pattaya. Very huge territory. It's hard to understand on your first visit and impossible to walk around everything. Be sure to use the shuttles in the area or rent golf carts. I definitely recommend it! We fed lemurs, giraffes, elephants, rhinos, deer and a lion!

The entrance can be confusing as a foreign visitor. I prebooked a ticket on Klook, then had to redeem it at the small white house a short walk from the entrance. Then I could return to the entrance and turn in that receipt. Zoo is a bit run down but the animals are interesting! I walked but ran out of steam pretty quickly. The tram and golf carts look like great options because you can stop and get off and on frequently. Lots of bathrooms and snack places. Souvenirs aren’t great but they are available.

I only gave 3 stars as it states it's an Open Zoo, it is for some animals, but others are kept in cramped caged areas. You can rent a self drive Golf cart or small tuk tuk to get around (recommended) as it is spread out over a vast area, too hot and humid to walk around. There are public trams that make the rounds, you can hop on/off, but of course have no control of where you're going. Bolt taxi from Pattaya was around £5 each way, a bargain considering the distance. The carts and tuk tuks are also very cheap to rent.

This place is wildly fun! For the first half of it. You can rent a golf cart and zip around and for the second half you can take a vehicle to get from exhibit to exhibit. There is so much more there than just one adorable, fantastic, feisty little hippo. Go for Moo Deng, stay for everything else! So great!

One of the best zoos that keep animals feel at their homes. Although people are drawn by superstar Moo Deng, but this place has a lot to offer. You can spend one whole day comfortably and it worths your time.

It was a wonderful experience for me and my family. We rented a golf cart and explored the zoo at our own pace, enjoying the beautiful sights throughout the visit.

The Chatuchak Market is the largest open-air market in Bangkok, so prepare for a lot of walking. The location is accessible by train, making it fairly easy to get there. There is no fee to get in and the market has different areas dedicated to specific items such as art or clothing. Scattered throughout are food stalls and other shops. I spent 4 hours here and was able to get through most of the market.

Chatuchak Weekend Market is an absolute must-visit in Bangkok! 🛍️ From trendy clothes and handmade crafts to delicious Thai street food, you can find almost everything here. The market is huge — make sure to wear comfy shoes and stay hydrated! 💦 The vibe is lively, the locals are friendly, and every corner is full of surprises. A perfect spot to shop, eat, and soak up the Bangkok atmosphere. 😍

I have been to Chatuchak Market many times over the years and every time I go I find something new or a section I haven't visited before. It's a very very big market and definitely worth a visit. They sell everything from clothes to kitchen wear, Hilltribe arts and crafts to furniture and antiques. There is so much more too this place but if you are looking for presents to take home or a great experience in Bangkok then it is a great option. Oh and there are lots of places to eat and drink as well. Just a two minute walk from the BTS station Mo Chit and the MRT station Suan Chatuchak.

This market mostly is of antiques or thrift clothing items. Although there was many cool items personally a lot of the price points were similar to that a vintage markets back home in Canada. They were curated, but for me things were more expensive than I was willing to spend. Definitely worth checking out though. Bring a snack as there’s a lot of floors and you will be in there for hours.

Chatuchak Weekend Market is an unmissable experience for anyone visiting Bangkok. Open only on weekends, this massive market is a true maze where you’ll happily get lost among thousands of stalls. Here you can find everything: traditional Thai clothing, all the most famous brands in surprisingly convincing “fake” versions, unique antiques, and an endless selection of incredibly cheap street food. One thing to remember: haggling is essential. Whatever you want to buy, negotiate—the price will drop dramatically, and it’s all part of the fun. The market is always very crowded, lively, and full of energy, making it a vibrant glimpse into local culture. Whether you’re shopping, tasting local bites, or simply enjoying the atmosphere, Chatuchak is definitely an experience you shouldn’t miss.

Shopping paradise and cultural experience! Chatuchak Weekend Market is massive and full of energy! From clothes, accessories, and souvenirs to unique home decor and street food, there’s something for everyone. The market is vibrant, colorful, and perfect for exploring local culture. Don’t forget to try some of the delicious Thai snacks while you shop. Bring comfy shoes and plenty of time — you’ll want to see it all! A must-visit for anyone in Bangkok.

Huge and amazing. Everything you could ever want is here. Trinkets, souvenirs, shoes, clothes, wallets, scarves, jerseys, household goods, bags and more. It is a barter situation so start lower than what they have marked, the more you get the better discount you'll get. Lots of delicious food stalls as well. It's absolutely huge so plan on spending some time here, many duplicate vendors but also many unique.

This place is full of history and has such a relaxing atmosphere. Walking around the ruins feels like stepping back in time, with every corner showing something interesting. The Buddha head in the tree roots is very unique and even more impressive in real life than in photos. It’s a beautiful spot to take pictures, learn about the past, and just enjoy some quiet moments away from the busy city. Definitely worth a visit.

One of the most famous temples in Ayutthaya, renowned for the most photographed Buddha head encased within the tree roots. Legend has it that a thief had intended to sell the Buddha head but was either forced to abandon it at the spot or the head was too heavy for him to carry further away, and so he had to leave it there. Over time, tree roots began to envelop the Buddha's head, and hence, this peculiar and unique landmark was formed. One can pray to the Buddha Head, but you must kneel and remove your shoes to show your respect.

A must visit in Ayutthaya City. It costs 80 baht for foreigners and 10 baht for Thai people to enter. The main attraction is the Busddha in the tree, but there are plenty of chedi, prang and other Buddha statues about. Talk a walk around Thai history and enjoy.

Nice ruins with some monks here. 80 bht entry for tourists, most ppl come to see the head in the tree. Cannot climb main large building as you can in the ruins next door.

We visited Wat Mahathat as part of a group tour to the ancient city of Ayutthaya. It is a fantastic place that is full of history. It was the capital prior to Bangkok but was completely burned down by an invasion in 1767. This place just oozes history and it is a great day trip on a visit to Bangkok. It's about an hour or hour and a half by car or there are many daily trains from Bangkok that take one hour and are very cheap. This is also where you can see the buddha head that has been surrounded by the roots of the sacred banyan tree. You should definitely try to make the time if you're in the area. There are a number of other sites only five to ten minutes away also.

Beautiful place to visit. The Buddha head entwined in the roots of the tree is a must-see and truly a unique sight. Take your time to walk around the grounds, the peaceful atmosphere makes it worth exploring.

The remnants of the Ayutthya Kingdom. The Ayutthya Kingdom was one of the most thriving dynasties of South east asia before it was attacked by the Burmese Konboung dynasty. Wat Mahathat is one such remnant of the Ayutthya dynasty. The entry ticket is 50 baht for non thai national and dress code mandates covered shoulder and knees. There are a few gifts shops right beside the ticket counter where one can rent a scarf or trousers. The place is spotless clean and serene. One can feel the calmness and peace in the air. The place definitely lives upto the hype and is a must visit spot in Ayutthya. The Buddha head in the tree is the top attraction here. But the crowd here is well managed and everyone gets a chance to take a pic. Do carry umbrella and water while visiting. Late afternoon is the best time yo visit

Bat cave was a great experience… the bats were never ending! However, what I loved was climbing the mountain and seeing the beautiful view of BB from the top 🌅🌾 LOTS of people, we couldn’t get a PassApp back to our hotel as there were no drivers nearby.

Come in the evening for bats before the sunset. Has some places to drink and eat + night market. Not far from the Phnom Sampov temple and killing caves.

I didn’t stay until evening to see the bats, but the daytime visit was already beautiful! The Buddhist carvings and the giant Buddha statue on the mountain are really impressive and peaceful. The place feels calm with amazing natural scenery. It’s a nice spot to learn about local culture, take photos, and enjoy the view. I’ll come back again next time to see the bats flying out at sunset! 🌄

Saturday 11the October: Nice experience to sit and watch millions of bat's exit the cave at dusk It does get busy around the seats in front of the caves with tourists and locals Still plenty of space to enjoy nature at it's finest, well worth the visit.

If you want to see the bat cave in Battambang, here you go! Thousands of bat flying out at the evening! You can also take a car riding to the mountain just around 2.5$-3$ per person! Local food selling around that too..

Great to see all the bats flying out of the caves - there’s a few bars around that you can sit at and watch them come out (get there earlier to get a seat). You don’t need to book in advance, we just paid entrance on the door. It does get very busy from 5:15/5:30pm so get there a bit before to get a good spot and not to be rushed around as the bats come out any time from 5:45-6pm

Got a private driver to tour battambong, the last stop was the mountain to see the bats, it was awesome, Street food great, monkeys are cute. And the statue is huge.

Chilling place. At first I was a little 'disappointed', as there are only signs where buildings used to be, but as you follow the audio guide and the tour the horrors catch up with you. At the tree the tears were rolling down my cheeks. My son was also very moved. We've been to Auschwitz and Birkenau, the parallels are obvious and it's very important to visit these places! We found the 'souvenir shop' somewhat unfitting in the setting. Wear clothes covering shoulders and knees.

Visiting the Choeung Ek Genocidal Center was a deeply emotional and reflective experience. The site is a stark reminder of Cambodia’s tragic history, and it’s important for understanding the country’s past. One of the best aspects of the visit was the audio guide provided with headphones, which allowed for a personal, quiet exploration of the grounds. The audio guide was incredibly informative and respectful, offering insights into the history and significance of each location within the center. The atmosphere is somber but serene, and it truly encourages you to pause and reflect. A must-visit for those wanting to learn about Cambodia’s history

Impressive place to visit. When you doubt of going here after visiting Tuol Sleng (S21) Genocide Museum (like I did) still go here; it's add real to understanding what happened.

You have to visit to understand the past and what happened here. The audio tour is really good. However, it is disturbing at times. The tree featured towards the end of the tour holds disturbing facts and atrocities about the past. It can be difficult for some to hear the information about what happened to the babies and children be warned.

It is really shocking to see this place but I am glad I was able to learn about the horrible history behind it. The audio guide is mandatory, without any guidance the place is just a bunch of random trees. You need someone to explain to you what happened. The audio tour is really good, it takes around 1 hour and it costs 6 USD for foreigners. Highly recommended during your visit to Phnom Penh.

This is one of the most emotionally moving places I’ve ever visited. As you walk through the serene grounds of Choeung Ek, it’s almost surreal to grasp the atrocities that occurred here during the Khmer Rouge regime in the late 1970s. The peaceful trees and grass-covered mass graves stand in stark contrast to the heartbreaking stories told through the excellent audio tour. What hit me hardest was the Memorial Stupa, towering yet silent, filled with thousands of human skulls and bones of the victims. It’s not just a monument, it’s a chilling reminder of the cruelty inflicted on innocent people. Displays of bone fragments, rusted tools, and preserved mass grave sites reinforce the unimaginable suffering. There’s a particular tree marked as the “Killing-Tree,” which was used in horrific ways. Hearing its story while standing beside it is something I will never forget. The signage throughout the site adds further context and reflection. I genuinely had tears in my eyes as did many others around me. It’s difficult, but necessary. Visiting this place ensures that we don’t forget, and helps ensure something like this never happens again. I wouldnt do the tour without the full audio addition. It's powerful, and very moving. Sunday 7:30 am–5:30 pm Monday 7:30 am–5:30 pm Tuesday 7:30 am–5:30 pm Wednesday 7:30 am–5:30 pm Thursday 7:30 am–5:30 pm Friday 7:30 am–5:30 pm Saturday 7:30 am–5:30 pm

I can't believe that this happened in the '70s and that Pol Pot was never truly brought to Justice. The audio tour was indispensable for understanding what happened here and throughout Cambodia. No study of communism should be complete without understanding the Khmer rouge.

Visiting both the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum (S-21) and the Choeung Ek Killing Fields was one of the most emotional and powerful experiences I’ve had in Cambodia. These places tell the story of the brutal Khmer Rouge regime — not through imagination, but through real evidence, preserved buildings, and the voices of survivors and victims. At Tuol Sleng (S-21), the entrance fee is $6 and includes an audio guide with headphones, available in about 10 to 12 major world languages — including RUSSIAN, which was a great help for me. You simply put on the headset, and as you walk through the former high school turned prison, the story unfolds in your own language. The museum is quiet and deeply respectful, filled with photographs, personal stories, and untouched prison cells. Later, when you come to the Choeung Ek Killing Fields, the experience continues, you walk through the field where thousands of innocent people were executed. The audio includes survivors’ stories and historical context, and there’s even a moment of silence built into the experience, allowing you to reflect. The stupa filled with victims’ skulls is a heartbreaking symbol, but it’s also a powerful reminder of what humanity must never allow again. Both places are incredibly respectful in how they present the past — not as a tourist attraction, but as places of remembrance and education. These visits are emotionally heavy, but absolutely necessary for anyone who wants to understand Cambodia’s recent history. I highly recommend both sites for anyone visiting Phnom Penh — not for fun, but for truth, reflection, and respect.

A difficult but essential visit to truly understand Cambodia’s recent history. This former school turned prison during the Khmer Rouge regime is deeply impactful. Walking through the cells, seeing victims’ photos, and listening to the audio guide (highly recommended) is a heavy experience that stays with you. It’s not an easy visit, but a necessary one to honor the memory of those who suffered here. 💡 Tip: Take your time and approach it with respect. This is not a tourist attraction — it’s a place of remembrance.

I must admit, at first I was not planning on visiting the place for obvious reasons, but then I changed my mind. And it sure was worth trying to understand Cambodia’s past. The museum is very well maintained and has a tranquille aura to it despite the horrible past. The outside yard as well as birds singing make the stories told by the audio guide more bearable somehow. When taking an audio guide you can learn alot and spend more time at the museum than expected. I was there for almost 3 hours. There are 4 building at Tuol Sleng, each one with 2 floors and a story of its own to tell. Some might find them too drastic, however all of us should know how this horror unfolded to spare our planet from repeating the same mistakes over and over again…

I'm touring in Phnom Penh and this place was recommended as part of things to do. Not knowing much about the history of Cambodia, I was still able to follow the narrative of the atrocities that happened at this place and the why's behind them. I used the audio guide which was good, and easy to follow. The guide has warnings if the images to be shown the next stage, would be graphic for some, leaving the listener to decide to go to the next section or listen to the audio outside. This was appreciated. The top floors of Buildings A and B, had some exhibitions which were informative. Overall a good place to go learn some tragic history.

Coupled with a visit to the killing fields, this is a very sobering but important part of Cambodia’s history. It is told graphically, but effectively. You can ask for an English speaking guide to take you round, or take the audio tour.

5 stars for an absolute must see to learn what happened here so hopefully it never happens again and don't believe Pol Pot is the only person to have done these atrocities or Cambodia being the only country. Over our history many countries have committed genocide. This museum has an audio tour with many details, your heart saddens

A well-maintained museum documenting a dark time in Cambodian history. I would recommend to make time for this if you are in Phnom Penh, in order to understand a little bit of the country's history.

Spectacular! A palatial and grand a you'd expect a palace to be! Grounds are gorgeous. Not allowed in some rooms, nor to take photos, and areas under renovation also not allowed in. Silver pagoda had the floors covered up so the full silver effect was not available on my visit.

Absolutely Breathtaking! A Royal Experience! 👑✨🇰🇭 This place is simply magnificent. A total feast for the eyes and a must-see if you are in town! 🤩 📝 A few important notes for my fellow travelers: 💡 Pro Tip on Prices: Heads up! 💸 Sometimes the prices quoted to tourists can be a bit... "optimistic" (aka high). I highly recommend visiting with a local friend or a guide. It makes things much smoother and helps with the bargaining! 🙏 Cultural Respect: What really touched my heart ❤️ was seeing the deep love and respect the locals have for the Royal Family and these sacred structures. It was genuinely beautiful to witness. Etiquette: Please remember to be super respectful and polite here. Dress modestly and soak in the atmosphere with reverence. 🤫 I have always loved this country, and experiences like this make me love it even more! Long live the King! 🤴🙌🇺🇸

We visited this palace on our first day in the city. Amazing site, so different to anything else you might have experienced before. Stunning colours, history and art. Life here is so diverse, wealth and abject poverty, vibrant colours and mud/litter. The palace certainly portrays a very affluent acceptance in a country with so many living with so little.

Be careful. Everywhere says it closes at 5pm but they stop visitors FROM ENTERING at 4pm to allow everyone currently on the grounds to be OUT BY 5 pm. This caught me off guard - but still returned the next day as they open very early at 8pm :). Beautiful grounds, temples, pagodas, and shrines. Don’t skip over the artwork all along the inner wall of the Silver Pagoda area - very interesting and not highlighted.

Stunning, magnificent and beautiful palace complex. The palace was first constructed by King Norodom between 1866 and 1870; but was largely demolished and rebuilt between 1912 and 1932. The palace's architecture is a mix of traditional Khmer design and French architectural influence, as seen in the gilded roofs, high spires, intricate carvings, and a layout that reflects both grandeur and harmony with nature. Gorgeous

This palace is epic beautiful. The structure, the architecture, the splendour, the landscapes and the gardens, the art work, every detail of this palace is unique. It’s difficult to catch its essence in pictures. And then there’s the Hall of the King which is inaccessible to visitors. Photography is also prohibited in this area. So the eye has to catch it all and stack away in memory. Worth a visit guys if you happen to be in Combodia. The Palace also has the King’s Residence and we happened to get a glimpse of his convoy which was disciplined and courteous. They ushered people to move away with dignity, no rudeness nothing.

Impressive buildings, but unfortunately most of them are closed to visitors, so you can only see them from the outside. There’s also little to no tourist information available to explain their history or significance. Overall, that makes the experience feel a bit overpriced.

Highlight of my Siem Reap trip was visiting a floating village in Siem Reap. People there live outside the world of convenience. They use alum to filter lake water for cooking, drinking and washing. 😳. Visiting there was a reminder of all the things we have to be grateful for. 🫶

It's the biggest lake in Southeast-Asia and it's definitely impressive. We visited during the dry season, so during our boat tour we got to see the way the houses on stilts were constructed. The sunset is stunning.

There are several floating villages around Tonle Sap Lake, where people have adapted their lifestyles to the changing water levels with houses, schools, and small shops scattered along the river and lake. It’s about a 40minute drive from Siem Reap city, a great spot to visit when you feel like taking a short break from the temples. During the dry season, some areas become too shallow or muddy for boats to enter, so it’s best to check the conditions before you go. The sunset over the lake was absolutely unforgettable.

A huge lake that shared with 5 provinces. We take a boat through Kampong Phluk, nearby Siem Reap. It took us around 30 minutes to reach here from the town. The lake is nice especially during sunset. You cannot see the shore of the other side from here. There are also few floating village that made for tourist attractions area and you can enter here for 22 usd. Totally an experience being here

This is the largest freshwater lake in southeast Asia, designated as a Reserve by the UNESCO. You need to buy a ticket to get to the port to take the boat to the lake. There are different sizes of boats to accommodate different group sizes. We took a middle size boat that accommodates 10/12 people. We enjoyed the trip very much. The trip was an adventure as small and medium size boats cross each other along the river leading to the lake. Water was low but the trip was fun. You will see interesting homes with long stairs leading to the river. Fishermen families have been living on the water houses for decades if not centuries. There are some floating restaurants that serve local dishes, specially crocodile meat. You may see in these restaurants small crocodile farms. The lake floating village includes a church, restaurants, community spaces and many homes, is worth the visit. This is definitely a place to visit while in Siem Rip.

Tonlé Sap is a stunning freshwater lake that changes dramatically with the seasons. The lake is home to floating villages that offer a glimpse into a rare way of life—but timing is key. In the dry season, water levels drop, and many “floating” houses sit on dry land. The sunset viewpoint is absolutely worth a stop, offering golden reflections over the water. While there are charming floating tea points scattered across the lake, expect high prices and limited choices. Visit during the wet season for the most authentic and beautiful experience.

You may feel like you came to a sea but this is the largest freshwater lake in southeast Asia. It has been designated as a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 1997 due to its high biodiversity. Now come to the point what you will get as a tourist. You need to buy tickets to get to this lake through a muddy road. There are different sizes of boats of different size of groups. Anyway i would suggest to get a small motor boats if you are alone or 4/5 persons. This will help you to move fast and also see the fishermen families living on the water villas/houses for around 100 years. There are number of floating restaurants that serve local dishes, sea foods along with special crocodile meat; you heard me right…these boats are mini crocodile farms as well. To have the best of tonle sap lake, go more inside to the lake, stop the boat motor and enjoy the sunset. Its so refreshing and relaxing. On the way back to Siam Reap, try road side restaurants for fresh fish grill from the lake. Dont miss it.

It is rare that world heritage sites live up to their billing but Angkor Wat is a success story in that regard in my book. At this point, it is probably unnecessary to detail the architectural and archeological importance of the site. But, may I suggest, there is something to be said for being an explorer, rather than going with a guide. Just open your eyes and wander in wonder through the maze-like ruins and porticos. Try to put yourself into the mind of an Angkorian. Put aside the detailed explanations and observations and just try to flow with the vibe of the place. I think that it is somehow more in tune with the spirit of the place to walk around in silent mystery. You can get the explanations and historical commentary from any number of excellent YouTube videos, before or even more powerfully, after your visit. Enter the temple with an open, detached mindset. Just my opinion, of course. Pro Tip Whatever your mindset, be aware that it rains frequently and heavily, from April to October so come with appropriate precautions (raincoats, umbrellas, etc.) or be prepared to be drenched as we were.

Angkor Wat: Cambodia's largest and most famous temple impresses with its extensive reliefs and majestic towers rising above the moat. If you travel to Cambodia, you'll almost certainly visit Angkor Wat. A fantastic temple unlike any you might have seen before in Thailand. Here you can feel and see the passage of centuries past. However, be aware that you won't be alone. Thousands of tourists throng, especially to the third terrace of the main temple. Meditation is only possible at night 😉

Most people would agree this is One of the most amazing sites in the world. For me, the most enjoyable factor is that whilst thousands of visitors visit every day, the site is so big you don't feel hemmed in by crowds. Look out for photo displays showing pre and post renovation work to appreciate the good work which has been done and continues to be done in conserving this place.

I went on a sunrise tour, strangers at the start of the day, but they were all open, friendly souls with interesting stories.I highly recommend you use a guide. I sometimes felt rushed but we got to see so much, abd our guide avoided the crowds, even at the popular places.

A wonderful overall experience and an incredible place. This is a destination that you shouldn't overlook when in southeast asia. I highly recommend spending an afternoon here.Touring through the ruins and exploring history.

Experiencing sunrise at Angkor Wat is truly unforgettable, a moment where history, culture, and humanity converge. Standing among travelers from all over the world, you witness golden light illuminating the central towers and reflecting across the surrounding moat, a vision that stays etched in memory. The temple’s intricate bas-reliefs and seamless blend of Hindu and Buddhist symbolism make exploring its corridors and courtyards endlessly fascinating. Even after hours of wandering, new details emerge at every turn. To fully appreciate it, a guided tour with advance ticket booking is highly recommended, making this majestic temple the must visit centerpiece of Siem Reap.

A long awaited visit as its high status both religiously and as a wonder of the world. I would have expect d the same level of vibe as say the Taj Mahal. Entry was $37 buying tickets online. We had problems with the site as it would keep crashing and payments were bouncing back. Kept trying for about 6-7 times before getting through. The structure itself is not as big as I anticipated, but the grounds are set over a vast space. Several gates need to be passed before arriving at the central monetary. The is considerable restoration works needed and I was surprised due to the high level of prestige it hold both religiously and internationally it was in such a poor state. There is a lot of mi ey in the country as apparent from the plethora of range rovers on the streets. I was surprised to see the number of high value cars, especially having passed through Laos and Vietnam. With everything said, the architecture is clearly amazing you know the pyramid like mysteries as to how they were able to achieve such a fate so many years ago. Some of the stones are colossal and would have taken effort to move around. The handcrafted detail Is also impressive as the time it took for such detailed work would have been colloidal. I feel in years to come when restoration work have taken place and all the failed debris removed this will only get better. I was underwhelmed due to the high expectations I had, because I heard the high status the monastery holds. It was only for the bucket list and I am glad I was able to see it in other than media imagery.

Friday 10th October: The whole Angkor complex probably needs a day or two to see everything, this part was probably my favourite. Ancient relics, and then a rainstorm, it all just added to tbe experience. A fantastic place to visit and soak in (literally) the atmosphere

Love the temples and the scenery. When you come to Cambodia, don’t miss out on the chance to see the amazing temples. Do be aware of wild Monkeys that are around there as they can sometimes be aggressive and will steal your food if you’re not careful.

Bayon Temple: This temple is known for its countless, enigmatically smiling stone faces that look in all directions. The Bayon Temple is a small, mystical temple that is far less crowded and bustling than Angkor Wat. Here, you can still experience some of the special atmosphere of those temples. A very beautiful place that shouldn't be missed on a tour of Angkor Wat.

The faces were so amazing on this temple and it was neat how much cooler it was inside with the breezes and shade. A couple of monkeys running around but we didn’t see any issues or attacks with them. Very busy on a Saturday morning though!

Beautiful Khmer temple with Khmer architecture. The temple is well known for the so called friendly smiling Buddhist faces carved in stone. So do keep your eyes open in every direction. The complex is beautifully preserved

Temple complex is in a compact space. Less crowded place. One of my favourite places to revisit

We went to.visit this one as a part of tour with our guide Chong, very peacefull and beautifull place, not full at the time ww arrived and we enjoyed a lot, it deserves the visit and our guide was very good. The stone u can watch it's supossed to give fertility...and he told us that a couple of japanese visitors used in one of his tours and they get blessed...so no one wanted to touch 🤣🤣

Very cool to see the temple based in the Tomb Raider film. Hasn’t been restored to the same level as Angkor Wat but it has a cool rustic charm. Very cool to see how the trees have grown inside the walls. Probably a close second best behind Angkor Wat.

This is the temple famous for the big trees that grow over the temple!! If your are a big tree lover, like me, Ta Prohm needs to be on your bucket list! Their size and tenacity is astounding!😯 🌳 Oh, and the temple is pretty good too!

A mystical jungle temple where huge tree roots overgrow the old stone walls, creating a unique, enchanted atmosphere. Everyone knows that the film Lara Croft: Tomb Raider was filmed here in 2000. And anyone who's been here will understand why. The scenery, with tree roots entwined around the walls, is fantastic. Other tourists want to see it too. Taking a "natural" photo requires patience.

TA Prohms temple also known locally as the Tomb raider temple because of the Anjelina Jolie movie being shot here , a great structure built by the Tamil kings of South zinnia, in 11 the century 1186 by King zjayavarman II , amazing structure eaten by the forests, now a famous ruins , the rulers of present day Tamilnadu should visit these places and do something ro revive the old ties of our ancestors , dilapidated structures all around but still magnificent, the kings here have lived a great life just imagine this was a small city of 2500 people living inside the premises in 11 th century , but they had 600 dancers to entertain these 1800 people , fun loving people these Tamil kings when they go over seas and see White skinned damsels , hmmm grandeur life , proud of the Tamil kings , jayavaman II and Suryavarman II from Tamilnadu building the world's largest temple complex , amazing indeed , can't forget the moments SURREAL indeed the lives of these south indian Tamil kings

This Temple complex is famous for mega size trees growing over the ancient structure. One gets amazing pictures. Must go too!

This was my favorite temple of the complex! The trees growing over the building create a unique atmosphere. My gf felt super inspired here so we came back for her to make art for her insta account @baya_illustrations

An astonishingly beautiful place. You walk here with and in aw. The trees that have taken over make it even more surreal, mythical and interesting to see.

You can spend a lot of time in the market and it can be intense and at close quarters with everyone keen to get your business. Prices are very negotiable. Its a great place to eat at a good price. The shopping is the surrounding streets is just as good and more enjoyable. There are some fixed price shops around which probably give a fair price although there can still be a bit of room to move. Generally at the other shops they will start at twice what they want. Of course if you have time it's best to try a few and you will usually get a good offer when you are walking away.

A nice market with a high energy vibe! There are many shops of many different kinds of products. There's also a food court for your heart's delight. The food was very inexpensive and good. There are many styles competing for your patronage so you will have many food options to choose from with highly reasonable prices. It's also shoppers paradise for cheap bargains. Notice I said bargains because the prices can be negotiated up to 70 to 80% at times 🤪🤪 that of course depends on the shop and the item not everyone is as lucky 😂 but overall it's an enjoyable experience window shopping for a bargain. Hope you enjoy!

ben thanh market is giving full sensory overload in the best way possible THE SHOPPING SITUATION this iconic spot is pure chaos but in a good way. the stalls are packed with everything from vintage ao dai to lacquerware that actually slaps. bargaining is expected, so bring your a-game. THE FOOD COURT VIBES the indoor food section is lowkey fire with stalls serving everything from proper pho to banh mi that hits different. it's the perfect place to sample multiple street eats without braving the heat. THE LOCAL EXPERIENCE yes it's touristy, but the energy here is next level. the constant buzz of vendors and shoppers creates this electric atmosphere that's uniquely saigon. come early to beat the crowds and heat. THE FINAL CALL if you want that classic market experience with all the sounds, smells, and flavors of hcmc, this is your move. embrace the chaos and you'll have a core memory in the making. don't forget to ❤️.

I had high expectations for Ben Thanh Market, but the experience was disappointing. The place is extremely crowded and chaotic, making it hard to enjoy browsing. Many vendors are overly pushy and keep following you, which gets uncomfortable after a while. Prices are heavily inflated, and you really need to bargain hard — otherwise, you’ll end up paying far more than things are worth. The quality of some products also felt questionable. Overall, it felt more like a tourist trap than an authentic shopping experience. Ben Thanh Market was not as enjoyable as I expected. The place is too crowded, and it’s difficult to move around comfortably. Most vendors are quite pushy, and prices seem much higher than normal unless you bargain very hard. The market feels more tourist-focused than authentic, which made the experience underwhelming. My verdict: Ben Thanh market experience is not good, annoying vendors with forced sales, sophisticated inside, high price for tourist and arrogant people

Ben Thanh Market is definitely a well-known spot in Ho Chi Minh City, especially for tourists. If you are looking for souvenirs, small gifts or general tchotchkes to bring home, you will find plenty of options here. It is busy, colorful and full of energy, which some people might really enjoy. For me personally, I did not find it particularly interesting. Most of the items felt very tourist oriented and not especially useful. Prices also start off quite high because it is a tourist-heavy area, so you are expected to negotiate. If you do not bargain, you will almost certainly end up overpaying. If you are looking for better quality items or things you might actually use, I would recommend checking out Saigon Square instead. It has a wider range of products, more reasonable prices and a more practical selection overall. Ben Thanh Market is fine for a quick visit if you want the tourist experience, but there are better options in the city for real shopping.

This market is definitely worth seeing, but if you don’t mind wandering through the city you’ll find much better offers. You’ll notice the vendors are far more aggressive than other markets. Everyone is friendly though and they’re eager to sell. If you’re willing to bargain you can get really good deals. I’ll admit, I’m not so good at bargaining.

19 Oct 2025 - We're here. Full of surprises, food, coffee and everything. Be polite and friendly 😉. Good way to haggle good price. Able to communicate in English, Mandarin and may even speak Cantonese. Kudos to a young gentleman who exhibit great communication at the beef pho stall.

The War Remnants Museum in Ho Chi Minh City offers a powerful and thought-provoking experience that dives deep into Vietnam's wartime history, particularly the Vietnam War. From the moment you enter, you're met with striking exhibits outside displays include American helicopters, tanks, and bombshells that set the tone before stepping inside. The museum’s galleries are well-curated, showcasing raw and emotional photography, first-hand accounts, weapon displays, and reconstructed prison conditions. One of the most impactful sections focuses on the long-term effects of chemical warfare, especially Agent Orange, with sobering imagery and survivor stories. The prison exhibit with life-sized mannequins and a preserved guillotine is chilling and historically significant. There’s also dedicated space exploring global support during the war, along with detailed panels about Da Lat and Phu Quoc prisons. The layout encourages reflection and personal interpretation, rather than forcing a political stance. You’ll want to spend at least 1~2 hours here to take in the emotional weight and historical context fully. It's not a light visit, but it's an essential one for anyone wanting to understand Vietnam’s past from a Vietnamese perspective. Respectful dress and quiet observation are appreciated in there. Thursday 7:30 am–5:30 pm Friday 7:30 am–5:30 pm Saturday 7:30 am–5:30 pm Sunday 7:30 am–5:30 pm Monday 7:30 am–5:30 pm Tuesday 7:30 am–5:30 pm Wednesday 7:30 am–5:30 pm

You don’t really have to buy your tickets in advance. Maybe on a weekend? I’m not sure. The collections in the museum are amazing. Just prepare your tissue, and yourself because you’ll get angry and teary at the same time. It’s not hot inside, and there’s an elevator for people with disabilities, elderly, or pregnant woman. If you really want to immerse yourself in here, and read everything. Allot at least 3-4 hours.

Amazing little museum. 3 floors of information pertaining to the Vietnam war and it’s lasting effects. In particular, I found the “War Photographers” section to be captivating…a lot of stories in there about journalists all over the globe that were intent on capturing the war and the brutality therein, often times paying the ultimate price for their attempts to broadcast the truth. The entire museum could easily take 2-4 hours if you’re intent on reading all the descriptions (provided in Vietnamese and English). One small note - I didn’t see any warnings, but some of the content in here can definitely be unsettling. I’m glad they haven’t shied away from this, as it’s important to show the horrible effects of the war directly. But there are quite a lot of pictures of dead and mutilated bodies, especially within the “War Crimes” room. Also, there’s a large section dedicated to the health ramifications of Agent Orange, showing the deformities (in both children and adults, Vietnamese and foreign) and mental conditions caused by that horrible chemical. I saw a lot of families with young kids in here, and a lot of the children had slightly terrified looks on their faces. I assume if it was affecting to me, it may have been doubly so for them. Again, I recommend coming and not turning your face away from the horrible facts and effects of the war, but if you’re sensitive or have young children who may not be mentally prepared for such imagery, you may want to avoid certain exhibits that you feel could include such photographs (mainly War Crimes and Agent Orange are the two areas that are disturbing, I haven’t included any pictures from them below). If you’re in Saigon even a little bit interested in the history and lasting effects of the war, this is a must-visit museum. I visited on a Saturday afternoon and it was crowded, but still easy to see everything.

Was on an emotional rollercoaster. Need more than an hour here, like 2 or more to look at the pictures, read and absorb, and look at the artillery and remnants. There are several sections and take your time through each. You will definitely leave emotionally numb yet applauding the nation and the support it enjoyed during its struggles.....

Very sad and confronting. We really took our time to look at everything. The more and more we read it was a little disheartening. War is never a great thing but unfortunately this museum is very one sided. They don't tell the whole truth. In one way I understand why they say USA invaded but for the South this was not true. The USA and Australians and other countries came to help the South but this is never mentioned. Even speaking to locals about this they agree and a very passionate about how one sided it is. I still recommend this place highly but have your own view on this. Apart from that, the photos are always etched in my mind.

Was a great museum full of relics and monuments to a whole lot. The floors are dedicated to different “eras” or tragedies of the war. Which were of course depressing to read about, but very important to understand and learn from. The staff were also very helpful and there was a virtual tour (headphones) to help

First time my daughter visited War Museum. she was truly amazed. The powerful displays, old photographs, and real war artifacts left her speechless. The place wasn't crowded at all. Ground floor did't have any AC but 1st and 2nd floor had AC. Staff was helpful at the gate.

A must-visit landmark when you’re in Ho Chi Minh City. Even though I’ve been here a few times before, the charm of the Saigon Central Post Office never seems to fade. This time I only came to buy a few stamps, but ended up staying much longer, once again drawn in by its timeless beauty. The architecture is a real showstopper — French colonial with ornate detailing that gives the building an almost palace-like feel. The arched ceiling inside, painted in a mix of green and gold with iron support beams, is visually stunning. The mosaic floor tiles are equally beautiful and well preserved, adding another layer of character. At the far end, the large portrait of Ho Chi Minh watching over the bustling space gives the post office both cultural and historical weight. There are also old French maps painted directly onto the walls, one showing Southern Vietnam and Cambodia, which is a unique historical touch. Despite being a working post office, it also feels like a museum — and it does get quite warm inside due to the constant stream of visitors. If you haven’t considered visiting this building yet, definitely put it on your list. It’s both iconic and inspiring.

Visited Saigon Central Post office as part of a tour, so we only made a quick stop. It was quite crowded when we arrived around 2:30 PM. Lots of postcards and cute souvenirs for sale inside and outside. There are tables and chairs where you can write your cards, just bring your own pen. Postcards sold inside are a slightly pricey (25k–40k VND each). The nearby Book Market also sells similar ones. If you have time, get postcards at Ben Thanh Market instead. I got 3 for 20k VND, same quality and beautiful designs. Postage costs around 22,500–33,500 VND depending on the destination. The staff are helpful and also sell stamps (mostly 4k, 8k, 15k denominations). Just leave your written and stamped postcards in the small basket near the counter. Tip: Pre-write your postcards if you can, since it’s hot and crowded inside. Leave space for the stamps. Price for a postcard and enveloped greeting card are not the same. There’s Highlands Coffee right outside if you need a place to cool down. Notre Dame Cathedral is just across the street too. Got my postcards after 6 weeks they arrived in great condition with a nice red “Par Avion” stamp.

The Saigon Central Post Office is a stunning blend of history and architecture. With its grand façade and intricate interior, it transports you back in time. The atmosphere is vibrant, filled with locals and tourists alike. Be sure to admire the detailed murals and the impressive wooden counters. It's not just a functioning post office; it's a cultural landmark that showcases the rich history of Ho Chi Minh City. A must-visit for anyone exploring the area!

The Saigon Central Post Office is an absolute must-see in Ho Chi Minh City, offering a gorgeous blend of functioning postal service and magnificent history. This iconic landmark, often credited to the genius of Gustave Eiffel, is a glorious testament to French colonial architecture, primarily in the Neo-Renaissance style. ​Stepping inside is like entering a grand European railway station. The soaring, high-vaulted ceiling, the polished marble floors, the intricate wrought-iron details, and the antique wooden phone booths create a spacious, airy, and wonderfully nostalgic atmosphere. The large portrait of President Ho Chi Minh presiding over the hall, alongside the historical maps painted on the walls, beautifully juxtaposes the building's colonial heritage with Vietnam's modern identity. ​But the best part? It's a fully operational post office! Taking the time to buy a postcard, write a note, and send it home is a charming, tangible way to engage with this living piece of history. It's a truly beautiful and calming respite from the city's heat and traffic.

We visited the Central Post Office on 7th July around 10:30 AM, and honestly, it completely exceeded our expectations. Many people might think, “It’s just a post office” — but trust me, it’s so much more than that. The moment you step inside, you’re hit with this amazing mix of colonial architecture, elegant interiors, and a really lively vibe. The high ceilings, arched windows, and vintage design make it feel like you’ve stepped back in time. It’s not just a building — it’s a part of Vietnam’s living history. Inside, there are lots of little shops where you can grab souvenirs, SIM cards, beauty products, and even some snacks. It’s surprisingly convenient and a nice mix of old-world charm and modern hustle. It was definitely crowded when we were there — tourists, locals, school kids — but in a good way. It just shows how loved this place really is. Despite the crowd, it didn’t feel overwhelming at all; the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. And here’s the part I loved the most — you can buy a postcard, write something personal, and send it to anyone in the world right from here. There’s something really beautiful about that — in a world of instant messages, writing and sending a real postcard from such a historic place just feels special. All in all, don’t skip this place thinking it’s just another government building. It’s an experience — beautiful, nostalgic, and full of character. Definitely one of the highlights of our time in Ho Chi Minh City.

Visited the Saigon Central Post Office today, one of the most iconic landmarks in Ho Chi Minh City. It’s a stunning piece of French colonial architecture, and stepping inside feels like walking into a beautifully preserved time capsule. On both the left and right sides of the hall, you’ll see old enclosed telephone booths — the kind people once used to call their friends and families in privacy. Today, they’ve been creatively transformed into instant photo booths, giving visitors a fun way to capture memories while still preserving the building’s nostalgic charm. Inside, you’ll also find souvenir shops, old wooden details, and locals still sending real letters — something rare these days. It’s a simple place, yet full of history and warmth. If you’re exploring the city, this is a quick and meaningful stop. Great for photos too. #hochiminh #vietnam #saigoncentralpostoffice

Not as impressive as I wanted it to be. Disorganized, and unfortunately as with many historical sights in Vietnam, everything has to be turned into a shopping mall for maximum profits. Still, not enough ground to skip this magnificent building from a bygone age.

The Củ Chi Tunnels, located near Ho Chi Minh City, are an extensive underground network used by Vietnamese soldiers during the Vietnam War. Stretching over 200 kilometers, these tunnels served as hiding spots, living quarters, supply routes, and hospitals. Today, they are a popular tourist attraction where visitors can explore sections of the tunnels and learn about the resilience and ingenuity of the Vietnamese people during wartime. Great experience and unforgettable day.

If you in Vietnam must visit Cu Chi for experiencing the mind blowing war techniques against American. Vietnam is a country that truly captures the heart of anyone who visits. The people of Vietnam are among the most welcoming, humble, and kind-hearted individuals I have ever met. Their warmth and hospitality make visitors feel at home from the very first moment. Whether in the bustling streets of Hanoi or the peaceful villages along the Mekong Delta, there’s always a smile to greet you and a helping hand ready when needed. The culture of Vietnam is equally rich and inspiring—a perfect blend of tradition, resilience, and grace. Deeply rooted in family values, respect for elders, and community spirit, Vietnamese culture reflects a harmony between the past and the present. Festivals, music, and art beautifully showcase the nation’s history and pride, while its cuisine—fresh, flavorful, and balanced—perfectly mirrors the Vietnamese way of life: simple yet deeply satisfying. What stands out most is the people’s positive spirit and their ability to find joy and strength even in challenges. Their respect for nature, tradition, and human connection is truly admirable. Overall, Vietnam’s people and culture leave a lasting impression—a reminder that kindness, simplicity, and unity are the true essence of a beautiful life.

Visiting the Cu Chi Tunnels is far more than just a historical tour; it is a profoundly immersive and eye-opening experience that will give you literal goosebumps. The sheer resourcefulness and determination of the Vietnamese people, who carved this complex, 250km-long underground city by hand, is astonishing. ​Seeing the incredibly small, cleverly hidden trapdoor entrances instantly sends a chill down your spine as you realize the ingenuity required for survival. But the ultimate moment is crawling through the tunnels yourself (sections have been widened, but they are still incredibly narrow!). The immediate sense of darkness, heat, and claustrophobia is deeply unsettling and offers a shocking, visceral understanding of the challenging life endured by soldiers and civilians here. ​It is a humbling, powerful, and absolutely essential visit that leaves you in awe of human resilience and the powerful, tangible history under your feet.

Here we come to Cu Chi Tunnel. If you going to HCM and love history. dont miss it. Entry fee not expensive also not to worry Once we enter they're tour guide walk us around. we took total 1hrs 45min grab car over from our place. My husband enjoy the guy shooting AK47 also the small tiny Tunnel go down and cover up. I myself try to walk through into a small Tunnel Omg so hot, need to band down to walk. But very good experience. It’s hard to believe how people dug and lived in tunnels during the war. Overall very good experience for us.

What an experience! First time I've first hand experienced a historical moment in modern human history told from the "other side". Truly eye opening and horrific moment in our history, especially with the current geopolitical events occurring live in front of our eyes, it gives a whole new perspective to it. This is a great place for all colonizing countries to visit, especially the French, British and of course Americans.

Visited the legendary Cu Chi Tunnels — a mind-blowing glimpse into Vietnam’s wartime history. Crawled through narrow underground passages, saw the clever traps and hidden bunkers, and witnessed the resilience and intelligence of the Vietnamese fighters. A powerful, unforgettable experience!

Very interesting experience to learn about Vietnam’s war . I booked a tour so the tour guide bought the tickets for me. Bring mosquito spray and maybe long sleeve. I came during a weekday, so I didn’t have to wait that much to enter into the tunnels. The tunnels are very small, so bring comfortable shoes and clothes.
