Ho Chi Minh City - Squatter Settlement Photos



I found a LOT of squatter settlements in my area. Just a few steps and I found these old, and badly built houses on sides of a 3 meter alley. The condition there is horrible, they would have little or no electricity and it is very dirty. I also found some in District 8. And they all have one in common condition and also, they all look like the one in the video.

Influenced





The Opera House in District 1. It is influenced by the Western Architecture.

The Notre Dame Basilica is a very good example for the influenced of Gothic Architecture.

I believe this building is call L'Hotel de Ville. It was built by the French so it was influenced the architecture whom was French.

This is the mosque and was influenced by the Islamic architecture heavily.
