If you’re a Muslim traveler planning to spend 1 day in Vietnam, here’s a suggested itinerary that focuses on halal-friendly experiences, cultural highlights, and efficient use of time. I’ll assume you’re arriving in or are already in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), as it’s the most accessible and Muslim Vietnam 1 day.
