Diners looking to enjoy Chinese specialties and gain an appreciation for Chinese culture should stop in at the Ming Dynasty Restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City.

The 4,500-square-meter luxurious eatery was built in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) architectural style, reminiscent of ancient Chinese royal design. The restaurant boasts a total of 20 dining rooms, all named after Ming Dynasty kings. Guests can dine surrounded by tasteful artworks while enjoying the peaceful beauty garden and greenery placed throughout the restaurant. A warm and cozy ambience relaxes diners with soft lighting created by wooden ceiling lanterns. The restaurant is a finely balanced combination of wood, bricks and stones creating an earthy atmosphere. Selections of paintings and furniture, as well as statues of famous combatants – replicas of the statues seen in the Qin Shihuangdi tombs in China – have been imported to enhance the surroundings. Diners can choose from more than 100 mouth-watering breakfast options and more than 300 renowned Hong Kong specialties. Tea-lovers can enjoy high-grade Chinese tea in a tea-drinking section located near the front of the restaurant. As a final touch, a selection of Chinese music inspires a true cultural experience.
