Saigon is too familiar with the bustling scenery of Nguyen Hue walking street, the bustling shopping picture of active young people in the central business areas, or the full-of-plate-eating in the busy foodcourts. But then suddenly one day, you want to find for yourself a different direction, slowly to enjoy, a feeling of “tranquility in nature” – be assured that Saigon still offers you a whole District 2 so you can enjoy the modern civilization but still be immersed in the greenness of nature for one day.

 

Small oasis of shade in the heart of the “East City”

Outlining this small oasis is the idea of expanding the ecological urban area filled with greenery everywhere – just like the zoning guideline of District 2 – the center of the green urban areas that stands out as the Model urban area PhoDong Village. Just with a small alley, but the alley 28 Thao Dien has been a virtual mecca for young people with quality taste, and is also a meeting place for those who are interested in seeking a rustic, a feeling of “tranquility in nature”.

At the oasis of the alley 28 Thao Dien, the eateries loomed in the green bushes. Inside, you will see an office complex of an architectural firm. The campus around the company is designed with open space like a small garden with trees, lakes so extremely airy, cool, pleasant. In the middle of the Saigon weather, a few dozen degrees, sitting in a cool house overlooking the green space like this is nothing.

Coming to the alley 28 Thao Dien, you can see the rows of green trees on both sides of the path, the small gardens surrounding beautiful shops help you feel the cool, mellow, true peaceful nature. Running along the alley are clothing shops, coffee shops are designed simply but still impressed with the dominant color is brown wood. There was also a vegetarian restaurant designed like a lovely garden, with a lake, and green trees that looked so spacious.
