In recent years golf has begun gaining popularity in the region and some of the best golf courses in Vietnam have been designed with the assistance of golf’s premier architects like Greg Norman, Nicklaus, Colin Montgomerie or Nick Faldo. In HCMC where lots of golfers are working or living, there are several exciting, challenging golf courses within easy reach of the city centre. One of the best golf courses in Saigon is Vietnam Golf  & Country Club.

Vietnam Golf & Country Club is one of the most prestigious and best golf courses in Vietnam, being host to many of the Vietnam Masters and Asian Tour events. The course lies amid dense green plantation, being carved out of the existing native woodland with minimal land movement, leaving you feel that the golf course has been there for a very long time reflecting the designer’s philosophy of attuning the layout and design to the natural lie of the land.
