Welcome to Thao Dien HCMC Viet Nam
Thao Dien is bordered to the west, north and along most of its eastern edge by a sweeping meander of the Saigon River. To the south, it is defined by the Xo Lo Ha Noi highway, until it meets Vo Truong Tuan, which marks the area’s eastern boundary. Thao Dien’s enviable location off the Xo Lo Na Ha Noi highway gives the neighborhood excellent accessibility, linking it to the CBD in about 15 minutes by car, while it is just a 10- minute drive to the Thu Thiem New Urban Area, a conglomeration of skyscrapers designed to replace District 1 as the city’s center. Thao Dien is home to a number of properties for which Vietnamese architects—who are gaining regional, if not international, recognition for their sustainable practices and contemporary, minimalist aesthetic—have become known, infusing the area with a unique aesthetic integrity. Thao Dien is now considered Ho Chi Minh City’s coolest neighborhood. Ancient banyans and narrow, tree-lined laneways can still be found throughout the district, endowing it with a laid-back charm that it has maintained, despite the city’s emphasis on development. The area will also be served by its own station when Ho Chi Minh City’s first metro line opens, which is expected to be next year, although it has already faced significant delays. This will run from Ben Thanh Market, in the center of the city, to Suoi Tien.
Thao Dien, and District 2 more broadly, are served by some of the best schools in the city for kids from preschool to 12th grade, including the European International School Ho Chi Minh City, the Australian International School, British International School Ho Chi Minh City and the International School Ho Chi Minh City. Additionally, The Saigon International University is located in Thao Dien.
