The east end of Thao Dien. Further east leaves the city visit — stop here.
The neighbourhood market. A short morning stop — not a Ben Thanh replacement.
The meal of this axis. If you return to District 1 after, do not also add Thu Thiem.
Thao Dien's shop street. Everyday errands — not the luxury day.
The villa stretch by the river. A short dusk walk — do not ride back to Bach Dang for a second river.
Shops by the station. Restock — do not browse as a plan.
The numbered lanes. Easy to loop. Pick one line to the river or back, then stop.
Old house fronts. The street view only — do not enter private yards.
The cafe end on the west side of Thao Dien. The first stretch off Line 1 — do not walk to An Phu and back.
