Ho Chi Minh City - In the middle of the ancient space of the City Post Office, many international tourists first experienced handwriting and sending postcards to their homeland.

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.
