VIETNAM - HCM - THE SAIGON ZOO. Zoological Park Ho Chi Minh City is one of the largest green spaces in this frantic metropolis where nature is scarce. Built by order of the admiral-governor of Cochin China in 1864, when the city was called Saigon, it proudly claims to be the eighth oldest zoo in the world.
