The Majestic Hotel in Saigon

I picked a five star hotel because I wanted the security.  I always worry about my photo gear when I travel.  I found this hotel on the web.  It was built in 1925 and it had some of the grandeur one would expect from that era.  I was quite comfortable.

I was greeted by these two ladies.
These images were taken in the lobby.


Journey's end and another one of my Vietnamese favorites, cafe sua da; another example of something the Vietnamese adopted from the french and made better.  It's their version of cafe au lait.

Returning to the hotel after dinner at the market.

  1. What a beautiful hotel! I guess I never thought about there being beauty in Vietnam.
