The open space in the Café’s garden, which is located in the back of Fine Arts Museum, is exhibition ground for 70 unique photos of ancient Saigon.

Travelers in Ho Chi Minh City during August should stop by Cosmo Café to contemplate the change in the life of the "Far East Pearl" thorough black and white photos, all the while enjoying a cup of coffee in a green and quiet space.
