Four alleys for virtual photography in Saigon that young people love

1. Alley 144 Pasteur

This alley is over 100m long - the way to a restaurant on Pasteur Street is a favorite check-in spot for many young people in Saigon. Two colorful walls are covered with lines of letters with names of places or typical fruits of Vietnam, becoming an ideal virtual background for young people. At night, many yellow lights strung across the ceiling turn the alley into a shimmering, magical tunnel of light.

2. Alley 41 Pham Ngoc Thach

The old white wall becomes more lively thanks to interesting slogans and drawings stretching from the beginning to the end of the alley on Pham Ngoc Thach Street. Not only Vietnamese people but also foreign visitors to Saigon enjoy taking hundreds of photos when they have the opportunity to pass by this artistic alley. In addition, many fashion shops also take advantage of the scenery here to take unique lookbook photos to attract customers.

3. Japanese Alley

Located on Le Thanh Ton Street, District 1, the neighborhood with the most Japanese restaurants in Saigon is also known as "little Japan" because walking on this short street, you will feel like you are wandering in a small alley in Tokyo. Most diners, after enjoying all kinds of Japanese cuisine here, will take the opportunity to pose in front of the dark brown wooden shops with small curtains hanging in front, bearing the style of the land of cherry blossoms.

4. Hao Si Ward Alley

Although the entrance is located right on the front of Tran Hung Dao Street, District 5, many people pass by without paying attention to this alley because from the front it looks like a normal house. Inside are two rows of houses built opposite each other in typical Chinese architecture. The houses are close together, without fences separating them, and the first floor balcony is also a small walkway for the households living above, making many people mistake this neighborhood for an old apartment building. Stepping into the alley, what catches your eye are the messy clotheslines in front of the houses. However, thanks to the space separated from the dust and smoke outside, this place is quite quiet, combined with the typical Chinese lifestyle of the Vietnamese of Chinese origin, making you feel like you are lost in a TVB movie scene.
