Starlight Crescent Bridge & Crescent Lake Park – HCMC

The Starlight Bridge, in Ho Chi Minh City, might be one of the most romantic destinations in the entire country. Situated on top of the serene and tranquil Crescent Lake, in Crescent Lake Park, this stunning bridge offers sweeping views as well as a quiet, peaceful atmosphere.

Located only a short distance away from the Crescent Mall in District 7, Crescent Lake Park, known as Ho Ban Nguyet Park to locals, is a relaxing alternative to the commotion of Ho Chi Minh City. While the park’s wide, green spaces are great for hanging out with friends and enjoying picnics, its main attraction is the Starlight Bridge or Cao Anh Sao in Vietnamese.

While the bridge is a great place to look at the water below during the day, the multi-colored light show that occurs at night is why this feature is considered a highlight. After the sun has set, hundreds of LED lights illuminate the water and transform this stunning waterfall into an oasis of rainbow colors.

As amazing as the Starlight Bridge’s light show is, visitors must be aware that it only takes place Thursday – Sunday, from 6:30 – 10 PM. Special occasions, such as New Year, are an exception, so visitors have to make sure that they head to the Starlight Bridge at the right time.

Large crowds tend to form in anticipation of the LED show, so aim to get to the bridge at around 5 PM. You’ll have plenty of time to find a good spot and you’ll be in a prime position to witness the sunset.

The Crescent Lake Park and Starlight Bridge are the perfect places for an all-day, fairytale date. If you’re looking for the ideal location to woo your partner and indulge in some romance, then this will be the destination for you!
