Best Places To Live In District 1 Saigon Vietnam | Tân Định & Đa Kao 🇻🇳

Looking for the best places to live in Saigon’s District 1? In this video, Big Uncle takes you through Đa Kao Ward and Tân Định Ward – two of the top neighborhoods for expats in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

The day begins with a stop at Manmaru, an affordable sushi spot that shows how much great food you can find in Đa Kao without breaking the bank. From there, we wander through one of the area’s leafy local parks before heading to 1991 Coffee & More, a rooftop café with some of the best sunset views over the Saigon skyline. The walk finishes along Hai Bà Trưng Street, ending at the lively Tân Định Market, one of the oldest and busiest markets in the city.

👉 About the Neighborhoods

Đa Kao Ward blends old and new Saigon, with French colonial villas, wide boulevards, tree-shaded backstreets, and a growing café culture. It’s quieter than the tourist-heavy parts of District 1, making it one of the most livable wards for expats.

Tân Định Ward is home to the iconic Pink Church (Nhà thờ Tân Định) and the historic Tân Định Market, which has served locals for more than a century. This ward offers a mix of affordability, convenience, and vibrant street life while still being just minutes away from the downtown core.

If you’re considering moving to Saigon, retiring abroad, or just curious about everyday life beyond the tourist streets, this walkthrough of Đa Kao and Tân Định shows exactly why these neighborhoods are among the best places to live in District 1, Saigon, Vietnam
