Đường sách Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh

this place sells sooo many kinds of books and vietnamese-style souvenirs, plus there are lots of really good deals too 🧾! you can also just walk around, enjoy the atmosphere, or take photos 📸... but it gets super crowded on weekends, so weekdays are way nicer and more chill 😉~ it’s also really close to Saigon Notre-Dame Basilica and Saigon Central Post Office, so you can stop by those places for photos and sightseeing too 🏛️💛!

A 100-meter-long lane running from Nguyễn Văn Bình Street to the iconic Notre-Dame Cathedral Basilica. Lined with trees, flowers, and benches, it offers a quiet, literary-focused escape. · Bookshops: Houses about 20 permanent bookstalls and shops offering a wide range: new Vietnamese literature, translated classics, academic texts, foreign-language books, comics, and beautiful postcards. · Café Culture: Interspersed with cozy cafés and juice bars where you can sit, read your new purchase, and watch the world go by. · Cultural Hub: Often hosts book launches, author signings, calligraphy exhibitions, and literary events, especially on weekends. · Architecture: Features some well-preserved French colonial-era villas that house the bookshops, adding to its picturesque feel. Visitor Experience: It's less about finding rare bargains and more about the experience of browsing in a serene, dedicated space. It's perfect for a slow 30-60 minute stroll, picking up a souvenir book, enjoying a coffee, and soaking in the intellectual and artistic vibe. It's a must-visit for book lovers and a pleasant stop for anyone exploring the city's central sights. Near to Saigon Post office and Norte Dame cathedral.

I actually came here twice - once in the day time and once at night. I found it more busy in the daytime but the string lights are nice at night. The shops will begin closing up at 9 so definitely allocate some time to explore. Great stop to make for some window shopping for books, grabbing a cup of coffee, or buying art/souvenirs.

Mình đến đường sách khá là nhiều lần. Lần đầu đến là làm sự kiện cho trường, nên thời gian khá bận rộn, k có tine để review được Mấy lần sau đến thì chỉ đi dạo xíu thôi nên cũng k có hưbgs review lắm. Mãi tới đại lễ 2/9 mình mới quyết định đi coi và review. Đường sách không quá dài, đi 1 lúc là thấy hết đường rồi. Không gian cũng k quá lớn, nhưng cũng khá thoáng đãng. Đi đúng dịp lễ nên toàn người thôi, mọi người đến check-in chụp ảnh yêu nước các kiểu nè. Nắm nắt tâm lý khách nên đường sách cũng decor rất "yêu nước" luôn nha 😍 Dù thời tiết SG rất nóng nhưng mà đường sách lại không quá nóng. Ngoài các cửa hàng có quạt gió và máy phun sương ra thì ở nhiều góc trên khung đường cũng có để quạt gió lớn để giúp khách không bị nóng quá nè. Sách thì giảm giá thường xuyên. Có những cuốn sale tới 50%. Có cả truyện và tác phẩm tiếng nước ngoài nha. Báo hay tạp chí, truyện tranh trẻ em cũng k thiếu luôn.

Đường sách rất chi là thú vị và hay ho nè ^^ Mình tìm ra bộ sách rất ứng ý về Krishnamurti tại quầy sách First News. Rất đáng để đọc và suy ngẫm ạ

Soooooo lovely vibe. Everyone should be here but I recommend you guys come Saturday & Sunday because Mon-Fri seems quiet and few open store and book collection

The vibrant energy is so cool. I like that can found many books in a foreign language. Also if are looking for a souvenir or a handmade painted this is the place
