First Elevator in Saigon

#2023travelwish The Fine Arts Museum of HCM city was formerly built in 1934 as a residence of the Sagion most wealthiest business man. It is located conveniently nearby Ben Thanh Market in 97A Pho Duc Chinh, District 1, HCMC, and is open daily from 0800-1700. This yellow-white colonial-era mansion is inspired by both French and Asian styles, which creates a typical ambiance through its marble floors throughout and the spacious, airy rooms. The mansion impresses visitors with French-styled balconies, long corridors, doors with arched styled to get wind, natural light, 99 doors with different architectural styles. From the main gate, one luxury remaining treasure is the first elevator to be assembled in Saigon, where the cabin was crafted by wood and sculpted as a royal palanquin. Classic spiral staircases at the third building must not be missed when you come to visit, it is very nice. Next year i wish to travel to Iceland.
