Alley (Webster’s Dictionary
Definition) a narrow street; especially : a thoroughfare through the middle of a block giving access to the rear of lots or
buildings
In the middle of the
steaming hot bustling activity of Ho Chi Minh City you can get away from at all by turning off a major road into one of millions
of the city’s narrow alley ways whether you intend to or accidentally got lost.
It’s amazing that people confidently buzz through these tight corridors on their motorbikes that are busy with
people going about their daily lives.
When navigating these tight corridors you'll be suprised to see
so much activity from people sitting on stools eating noodles, people playing a full court game of soccer, and vendors selling
anything from cigarettes to clothes.
One sure way to end up
in these alleys is trying to find a place such as a friend’s house or a restaurant for the first time. As you enter on of these various mazes you can easily lose your orientation which makes getting out later
on another adventure. What’s amazing about these alleys is not only the
narrowness, the endless turns, but also what you find in them. Contrary to the
danger you imagine when you think of the
dark alleys in Hollywood movies, alleys in most of Saigon are just thoroughfare that are bustling with life..
