Not far from the book street, we arrived at Saigon Central Post Office, which features a unique, bright yellow exterior framed with white trim. Curved windows are elegantly framed with green shutters and a large clock is featured prominently at the building’s main entrance.
The Saigon Central Post Office is a wonderful place to marvel at extraordinary colonial architecture. The city has meticulously maintained this exquisite building and it is still in full operation. The office offers full postal services and also sells an array of postcards and stamps, making excellent souvenirs to bring back home.
The post office also features polished old-school phone booths, original oil paintings on the walls, wooden countertops along the sides, old glue pots to place stamps on envelopes, and areas to write a letter to a loved one.
