What You Will Do

Hop on a bike and let’s roll through the lively streets of the city from District 1 to District 5, Chinatown Cho Lon, Saigon’s Chinatown, to follow the wild ride of Quach Dam’s life! Picture this: a kid scrapping by, selling bits and pieces in District 5, who grows up to become one of Saigon’s richest folks. As we weave through buzzing alleys, colorful markets, and old buildings, you’ll see where he left his mark and hear stories about the awesome stuff he did for the city.

Itinerary
