In 2024,\u00a0TimeOut<\/a>\u00a0named Thao Dien one of the\u00a0coolest neighborhoods in the world<\/em>, and it\u2019s easy to see why.<\/p>\n

Once a quiet residential suburb along the tranquil banks of the Saigon River in District 2, Thao Dien is now blended with an international flair, drawing in creatives and young professionals.<\/p>\n

While downtown Saigon hums with nonstop energy, Th\u1ea3o \u0110i\u1ec1n moves at its own pace, slower, and just a metro ride away from the city center, District 1.<\/p>\n

Start a day by riding Metro Line 1, Saigon\u2019s first-ever urban railway. This new line connects the heart of District 1 to the city\u2019s eastern edges in minutes; no motorbike, no traffic, no honking.<\/p>\n

Catch the train from Ba Son Station, glide across Sai Gon River. After three stops, you will arrive at Thao Dien Station. It\u2019s air-conditioned, clean, and surprisingly peaceful for public transport.<\/p>\n
