District 4 is one of the urban districts in Saigon that you should not miss while traveling. District 4 is well-known with its bridge Mong Bridge and Nha Rong Wharf.

Mống Bridge

Mống Bridge, one of the most antique bridge for walkers in Saigon from the Frech colonial period, is usually crowded, especially with the youth because of its beautiful design and its view towards the city. There are lots of good places to go here such as Bitexco tower standing significantly, the calm Tàu Hủ channel, high-crowded streets,  and many old and modern buildings. You can take a lovely picture and feel the peace in a chaotic city.

Nha Rong Wharf (Bến Nhà Rồng)

If you care about Vietnam history, you definitely hear of Uncle Ho - Ho Chi Minh. On 5th June 1911, he set his abroad journey to seek for a way to free his nation Vietnam from the colonization at this Bến Nhà Rồng. Therefore, the port has a significant historical value. At that time, Bến Nhà Rồng was a big port of Saigon and remarkable for the dragons statue on the roof, which explains the name of it. Today, the building shifts into Ho Chi Minh museum and the architecture is still unchanged until now.
