Having never written a hand letter, Lily Gordon Brown (visitors from Scotland) was excited to experience this activity at the City Post Office. Ms. Lily sat attentively writing the words on the postcard, then sent it to her relatives at home.
Not only Lily, this experience also attracts international visitors. At the booth selling postcards, letters, many people talk to friends and relatives about the images printed on it.
At the table, many international visitors wrote each line sent to relatives at home, as they kept the most true feelings in the journey to explore Vietnam. This seemingly simple experience leaves a deep impression in the memory of many tourists when visiting Ho Chi Minh City.

Some tourists said that writing the hand letter between the ancient space of the City Post Office brings a special feeling, both nostalgic, warm, different from the quick and convenient of messages or emails.
The atmosphere here is bustling but still retains the peace. Many tourists also exchanged smiles when the stamp was glued to the envelope, ready to follow the journey to cross the ocean.
Mr. Lucas Tolentino (visitors from Brazil) also enlisted this occasion to write some messages to relatives as a special souvenir from Vietnam, especially on the occasion of Ho Chi Minh City busy preparing for the big holiday.
"This feeling is new. I find myself connecting to the recipient in a very different way than sending a phone message" - Mr. Lucas said.
On the occasion of April 30, Ho Chi Minh City is wearing a new appearance with flags, slogans ... and cultural and art programs held in many public places. In that flow, the City Post Office, a building bearing a historic imprint, not only attracted people and tourists to visit, but also became a special place to experience.
The city post office, located right next to the Notre Dame Cathedral (District 1), is one of the ancient architectural works and the unique cultural symbol of the city.
With a high dome, curved ceiling, large window and design with a bold European imprint in the 19th century, this place is not only a letter of mail but also a place to preserve memories, past and present connections. Every day, this destination attracts hundreds of domestic and foreign tourists.
