I almost go to Ho Chi Minh City twice every three months to do some investment and construction work there. Kitty and I are different. I still prefer living in Landmark, which costs about $1000 per month, with one bedroom and one living room, about 55 square meters. If it's a family, two bedrooms and one living room are about $1500, about 85 square meters.
I like Landmark mainly because the transportation is very convenient and it's not far to go anywhere. There is a Vincom Center shopping mall, which is similar to those in China and can basically solve all the needs in Ho Chi Minh City in one stop. Moreover, there are mostly Chinese and Koreans here, which belong to a higher grade community with better safety.
Of course, due to the large number of short-term rental tourists, there is indeed some personnel confusion. This should be the most convenient place for most friends to stay in Ho Chi Minh City. About 2km away from here, there is a beef Rice noodles restaurant under the bridge. The taste is moderate, but the amount is really large, about $5. Do you remember clearly.
Landmark is not far from Japan Street, to be honest, I really don't recommend everyone to go to Japan Street for entertainment. It's almost a trap step by step, and there's no problem passing by. When entering the store for consumption, you still need to be very cautious, especially for Chinese customers who are basically regarded as mobile ATMs. Local customers told me that they often go to Japan Street to rescue people, but in reality, at most they can get a 60% discount, and the money they should give is not less than one cent.
I only went to Japan Street for one purpose, that is, the coffee shop opposite Cherry, which is full of my favorite Rice noodles for Ho Chi Minh. Every time I went to Ho Chi Minh, I would go to eat them once, which should be more than the times I ate benthic fish in the Vincom Center. In particular, the soup tastes really good. Every time I took a taxi to take a meal of noodles, and then took a taxi back to Landmark.
The transportation in Ho Chi Minh City is quite poor, and taking a taxi is not expensive. I haven't really paid much attention to the price. For short-term travel in Ho Chi Minh City, taking a taxi is not a problem, but for long-term living, motorcycles will be more convenient. Using Grab in Ho Chi Minh City is very convenient, and it can be reached within ten minutes by car.
Speaking of Rice noodles, King of Vietnam @ ayongaBTC and @ Kingskobe24 often take me to the Rice noodles shop of Michelin. I still think the taste is quite ordinary, but it is true that Rice noodles in Vietnam are not expensive and the quantity is quite large, especially the soup.
Because they are all staying in Vietnam for a short period of time, usually within a week, they don't pay much attention to food, and they always treat their friends very well. However, from my personal perspective, if we stay at Landmark, the meal cost is not very cheap, about $10 per meal. If we go to the mall to eat, there are more choices and the price is more expensive. $20 per person should be around the same.
The weather in Vietnam is similar to that in Singapore. It is very hot, but I feel that it rains frequently in Vietnam, and the ratio of heavy rainstorm is very high. Almost every time I go there will be a heavy rainstorm, which is also the advantage of living in Landmark. You can solve all problems in one stop almost without going out.
Overall, I am indeed investing in and laying out industries in Vietnam now. I have also taken many Singaporean partners to Vietnam for inspection, and their reactions have been good, especially with Vietnam's open attitude towards cryptocurrency. Many exchanges have started to lay out in Vietnam, and several local exchanges in southern Vietnam are also moving towards compliance.
