Ho Chi Minh city Ho Chi Minh is the most populated city in Vietnam. Formerly, this city was called Saigon. I have visited Visited two summers ago, with three friends, with our backpacks, deciding our route by improvising once we were arriving in a new place. I found this city marvellous because I was in a completely different culture, so far from my home. The houses were built one above the other , and a lot of them were decaying places. Nevertheless, entire families were living in their small residences, togehther with some farm animals, such as hens or dogs. In my opinion, the most impressive thing was the way citizens were driving. There wasn't any rule: cars and motorcycles were going through the road freely, without obeying the traffic lanes. Usually nobody had a helmet while riding a motorcycle, and majority of times you could see at least three persons on them. From time to time, you could notice alive animals, such as pigs or dogs in a cage, that soon were going to be served in a meal.
