Ho Chi Minh City was too hot for this Malaysian tourist, but still interesting

After landing at the Tan Son Nhat International Airport in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, it took us one hour to clear immigration as it was very chaotic. It seemed more like a packed concert hall with limited staff around to guide us than an airport.

During our week-long visit to Ho Chi Minh City, we visited a few interesting places including the Fine Arts Museum, the War Remnants Museum, Independence Palace and Vietnam History Museum.
