Tips for visiting Ho Chi Minh City in November
Though the temperature in November is very similar to it in previous month, lower humidity makes this month’s weather become cooler. It is still rather hot during the daytime, but really pleasant at night. The rainfall amount in the last month of rainy season dropped significantly to about half of what it was in the previous month. However, with one third of days in November experiencing rainy weather, umbrella and raincoat are still good friends of travelers.
When the weather starts getting cool at night, it is great time to enjoy a cruise dinner along Saigon River. It is very relaxing to enjoy the cool winds and watch the city sparkling by night while having local specialties on floating restaurants. Besides, tourists can take a walk at Bach Dang Park which lies along Sai Gon River to enjoy the cool atmosphere at night.
Though the weather in November is much more pleasant than it in previous months of rainy season, it is not a really good time to visit Ho Chi Minh City. It would be much better if tourists wait until December, the first month of dry season to visit the city and enjoy the festivity with the locals.
