The xích lô (cyclo) was introduced in Vietnam during the 1930s, under French colonial rule.

✔️ 1936: French engineer Pierre Coupeaud promoted the modern cyclo in Indochina.
✔️ 1939: Cyclos became established in Saigon as a practical form of urban transportation.
✔️ They gradually replaced the older xe kéo (rickshaw), which was pulled by a person.
✔️ 1950s–1970s: The xích lô became one of the most common ways to travel around Saigon and other Vietnamese cities.
✔️ After 1975: Cyclos remained important, particularly when fuel and motorized transportation were limited.
✔️ Today: Due to traffic restrictions and changing transportation habits, cyclos are used mainly for tourism and cultural experiences, especially in historic areas such as Chợ Lớn in Saigon and around Hoàn Kiếm Lake in Hanoi.

The xích lô is more than just a vehicle—it has become an iconic symbol of old Saigon and traditional Vietnamese city life.

🇦🇺 Welcoming a lovely guest from Australia to Saigon!

It was a pleasure to be his first tour guide in Saigon at the beginning of October for a memorable 6-hour journey through the city.

He’s a true gentleman — humorous, curious, and always ready for a good conversation. 😄

It’s been such a long time since I felt like I was a child again… 🌕🏮✨

Celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival — receiving little gifts, enjoying mooncakes 🥮, watching the lion dance, playing with lanterns, releasing floating lanterns, roasting candy, tasting traditional Vòng Village green rice flakes, singing and laughing together… all those little things brought back so many childhood memories.

Things that felt so ordinary when we were kids somehow become so precious when we grow up. ❤️

A truly lovely Mid-Autumn evening with friends — filled with laughter, joy, and so many familiar feelings.

Sometimes, all we need is to become a child again… to stop overthinking, simply play, have fun, and enjoy the moment. 🥰🏮🌕

Memories from the Mid-Autumn Festival 2026. 🌻

Cao Quy Linh is a traditional Chinese herbal jelly popular in Saigon’s Chinese-Vietnamese community. It has a glossy black color, soft chewy texture, and a slightly bitter herbal taste.

🌿 Traditional: Made with turtle shell powder, Smilax, licorice, and other herbs.
🌿 Modern: Usually made with plant-based herbs, with a soft jelly-like texture and rich herbal flavor.

Traditionally believed to help “cool the body” and clear internal heat, it’s often served with honey, coconut milk, milk, or fruit to balance the bitterness.

Want to explore Saigon’s Chinatown, discover hidden gems, taste authentic local food, and experience the local side of Cholon? 🏮🥢

🌕 The Legend of Ms. Hằng & Uncle Cuội 🇻🇳

Have you ever wondered about the figures you often see during Vietnam’s Mid-Autumn Festival?

🌳 Uncle Cuội is said to have been carried to the Moon while holding onto a magical banyan tree. Vietnamese folklore tells that the dark shadow seen on the full moon is Cuội, sitting beneath the tree and missing his homeland.

🌙 Ms. Hằng is the beautiful woman who lives on the Moon, symbolizing beauty, purity, and the gentle moonlight of the full-moon night.

✨ During Tết Trung Thu, children gather to enjoy lanterns, mooncakes, lion dances, storytelling, and the magical atmosphere of the full moon.

A beautiful Vietnamese tradition where legends, family, and childhood memories come together under the moonlight. 🏮🌕
