Its annual passenger-handling capacity is 25 million. It will distribute the load on the currently congested Tan Son Nhat Airport, with a possibility of increased direct flights from Japan too.<\/p>\n<h2>Ho Chi Minh City's 2026 tourism targets<\/h2>\n<p>The targets the city has set for 2026 are as follows.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Indicator<\/th>\n<th>Target value<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Total number of tourists<\/td>\n<td>61 million people<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Of which foreign tourists<\/td>\n<td>11 million people<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tourism revenue target<\/td>\n<td>330 trillion VND (about 1.85 trillion yen)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2>Ho Chi Minh City guide by tourist area<\/h2>\n<h3>District 1 (the center of the old town)<\/h3>\n<p>The heart of sightseeing where Ben Thanh Market, Saigon Cathedral, and the Central Post Office cluster. Metro Line 1's Ben Thanh Station provides direct, convenient access. Coffee shops and restaurants are densely packed, making it ideal as a base for getting around.<\/p>\n<h3>Notable caf\u00e9 area around District 1<\/h3>\n<p>Many of Ho Chi Minh City's alley caf\u00e9s are spaces renovated from old buildings. The \"caf\u00e9 paradise\" nature of full Wi-Fi, available power outlets, and long stays being OK makes them the best rest spots for travelers. Iced coffee (ca phe sua da) can be enjoyed from the 50-to-100-yen range a cup.<\/p>\n<h3>Tan Binh District, Binh Thanh District<\/h3>\n<p>Living areas where many local people reside. Banh mi shops, pho shops, and local markets are densely packed, and you can experience the \"real Ho Chi Minh City\" that isn't touristified. There are also many cheap inns for backpackers.<\/p>\n<h2>Practical advice for travel planning<\/h2>\n<p><strong>The second half of 2026 is the recommended visiting period<\/strong><br \/>\nAround April 30, the city may be crowded due to the commemorative ceremony. May to August (rainy season, but no problem for indoor sightseeing), when infrastructure development settles down, or October to December (dry season, the best sightseeing season), is comfortable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cut travel costs by using the metro<\/strong><br \/>\nMetro Line 1 can also be used for travel from the airport (Tan Son Nhat) into the city. The one-way fare between District 1 and the airport is about 20,000 to 25,000 VND (about 120 to 150 yen in Japanese yen). That's less than a tenth of a taxi.<\/p>\n<p>For those unsure about Vietnam travel souvenirs, we offer Vietnamese drip-coffee gift sets, a standard even at Ho Chi Minh City caf\u00e9s.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u30db\u30fc\u30c1\u30df\u30f3\u5e02\u306f2026\u5e744\u670829\u65e5\uff08\u30d9\u30c8\u30ca\u30e0\u89e3\u653e\u8a18\u5ff5\u65e551\u5468\u5e74\u306e\u524d\u65e5\uff09\u3001\u30e1\u30c8\u30ed2\u53f7\u7dda\uff08\u30d9\u30f3\u30bf\u30a4\u30f3\u301c\u30c8\u30a5\u30fc\u30c6\u30a3\u30a8 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"swell_btn_cv_data":"","ssp_meta_description":"\u30db\u30fc\u30c1\u30df\u30f3\u5e02\u304c2026\u5e744\u670830\u65e5\u306e\u30d9\u30c8\u30ca\u30e0\u89e3\u653e\u8a18\u5ff5\u65e551\u5468\u5e74\u306b\u5408\u308f\u305b\u3001\u7dcf\u984dVND341\u5146\u306e13\u4ef6\u30a4\u30f3\u30d5\u30e9\u3092\u5b8c\u6210\u5f0f\u5178\u3002\u5730\u4e0b\u9244\u30fb\u6df1\u6c34\u6e2f3\u57fa\u30fb\u9ad8\u901f\u9053\u8def\u30fb\u30ed\u30f3\u30bf\u30f3\u56fd\u969b\u7a7a\u6e2f\u7b2c1\u671f\u304c\u540c\u6642\u306b\u7ae3\u5de5\u3057\u307e\u3059\u3002","ssp_meta_keyword":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[19,427],"tags":[286,288,30],"purpose":[144,130],"keyword":[197,204],"location":[317,425],"class_list":["post-1772","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry","category-news","category-transport","tag-286","tag-infrastructure","tag-hochiminh","purpose-transportation","purpose-travel","keyword-trend","keyword-modern","location-ho-chi-minh","location-southern-vietnam"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/1772","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1772"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/1772\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4320,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/1772\/revisions\/4320"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1772"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1772"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1772"},{"taxonomy":"purpose","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/purpose?post=1772"},{"taxonomy":"keyword","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/keyword?post=1772"},{"taxonomy":"location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/location?post=1772"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
