« Back to Houses in Ho Chi Minh City
21 Phố (Street) Nguyễn Trãi
Most of the houses in this collection were photographed along this street, which runs from Chợ Lớn (District 5) to downtown Sài Gòn (District 1). This was my favorite street when I lived here in 1972 when it was named Vo Thanh Street. Note the good use of vegetation on the upper reaches of these houses.
