Top spots for a weekend getaway near Saigon



VOV.VN-Can Gio, located roughly 50km from Saigon, is one of the favourite weekend holiday spots for Saigoneers.

In Can Gio, visitors always have tons of fun on Monkey Island, home to more than 200 naughty primates that are fond of stealing food and other items from guests.


Visitors to the Oyster Fishing Village say it’s fascinating to see how the molluscs live and how farmers raise and harvest them. 

There is always a vibrant and bustling atmosphere at the Dong Hoa Wharf where fishermen anchor their boats. 

The Dong Hoa Seafood Market is a live market that seems untouched by the modern world.  Prices of seafood here are very inexpensive.

At the dried fish processing factories located in Can Gio guests can buy delicious food at extremely affordable prices.

The Fruit Gardens in Can Thach town is an ideal spot for a stroll through fruit orchards and garden patches to observe the famers care for trees and harvest fruit.



Thach An island still retains its centuries-old  wild and natural beauty. 

Thieng Lieng Island is one of the most unique tourist destinations in Can Gio, where mounds of natural salt are manually harvested from shallow fields.
