Ho Chi Min City train station by night

Oct 09, 2022, 07:13 PM

I went to the main train station and a small crowd waited in the departure hall to access the railway. Overall chatter in Vietnamese and announcement. Recorded at night time. The sounds of public transport and travel are always indicative of a thriving city, and as we struggle to meet the challenges posed by climate change, a reliance on safe, clean and efficient public transport will be one of the key tools at the disposal of a city.
