         <description><![CDATA[<p>There are many different tourist sites, cafes, restaurants, etc. in Ho Chi Minh City for visitors to enjoy. There are a lot of well-known ones, most of which have historical significance, like the Independence Palace, Notre Dame Cathedral, and 30/4 Park; and the underrated ones might include certain museums and just locations which are too far from the center. The one that most intrigues me out of all of them is not a building, but it's going to be a certain kind of building, which are mostly found in District 1 and 3. The term "Vietnamese old building" refers to this kind of structure, and the 23 Ly Tu Trong century - old building is a representative. </p><p>The building has now become a unique vintage - classic "commercial center", attracting tourists and young people to explore. It is located in the middle of an area with many modern buildings in the center of Ho Chi Minh city. However, this apartment complex still remains the old features of the city in the past. Ly Tu Trong Apartment currently has 4 floors, and  the apartments are used for 2 main purposes, which is as a house and for business; but mainly the owners rent them out for new owners to do business. </p><p>In terms of architecture and structure, the apartment has a spacious lobby and a uniquely decorated basement entrance; for the purpose of allowing people to visit and shop, as well as for the residents to feel more airy, limiting the stuffy feeling. The apartment also has a unique, very interesting classic feature, and this is the point I like the most here. In particular, there are also old stairs and elevators that have existed for nearly a century; making it even more nostalgic. Taking advantage of this, business owners here often choose the "Retro - Nostalgic" style to decorate their shops and stores. However, no shop is the same, so it creates diversity and appeal for each floor. And this is the point that makes me love this place. </p><p>These old apartments with this new style are fully exploiting their own strengths, which are the unmixed old features, to turn them into strengths to attract tourists; especially foreign tourists, when they really like the hidden cafe model. But perhaps, in my opinion, they are still not really known to everyone; and are only known to locals or true fans of this model. In addition to the above apartment building, Ho Chi Minh City also has hundreds of old apartment buildings, such as Thanh Da apartment building, Ton That Thuyet apartment building, Ton That Dam apartment building, etc. The contrast between the bustling, noisy world outside and the old space inside is the unique feature that creates the attraction for old apartments.</p>]]></description>
