Qurator's Photo Friday #95 | The streets of Pham Ngu Lao
Pham Ngu Lao Street in Ho Chi Minh City is on the western edge of District 1 and is renowned as the place where most backpacking travellers stay during their holiday.
A 25-minute taxi ride from Tan Sot Nhat International Airport, it comprises numerous lanes and back alleys though the main thoroughfares include Pham Ngu Lao, De Tham, Bui Vien, and Do Quang Dao streets.
Set along these alleyways are western-style restaurants, coffee shops, and international bars, countless tour companies and kiosks, affordable motels, hostels and guesthouses (as well as many of the so-called day use hotel buildings usually with six to seven floors, internet cafes, pharmacies, and souvenir-and-craft shops.
Pham Ngu Lao Street is not limited to only low-budget travellers. Its own unique vibe draws people from everywhere due to its close proximity to prominent landmarks in Ho Chi Minh City. As there is always something going on in Pham Ngu Lao Street, many visitors prefer to enjoy local street food or people-watching while enjoying the incredibly cheap draught beer on the roadside.

I can tell how busy the street is by looking at the photo =) Thank you for sharing.
If on a Friday or Saturday night, there was no way to walk at all.
But it's an experience to actually witness it, for sure.
