Central Saigon is the place to be on weekend and holiday nights, with the streets jam-packed with young Saigonese cruising by on motorcycles and bicycles. Everyone is dressed in their fashionable best (spot the price tags that often are still attached). And this, would be a more toned down version of the notoriously riotous nightlife when Saigon was the major center of R&R for U.S. soldiers.
Tropical Rainforest is the hottest dance spot in Ho Chi Minh City, with an Amazonian rainforest theme design that boasts suggestively-named cocktails such as Envy, Seduction and Orgasm. If anything, it's an eye-opener as to what young Saigonese view as hip -- don't be shocked if the dude next to you thinks that kung fu dancing is still the coolest boogie move, or if the chick is hitting the bar decked out like Janet Jackson... of the 1980s.
