The 1959 vintage Caravelle Hotel is at the center of the 1965 photo. On the left there is the open air bar at the Continental Palace, while the Eden shops are at the right. Lam Son Square fronts the Saigon Opera House at the center. At that time the Australian Embassy was located in the hotel.
Today a 24 story tower addition dwarfs the original Caravelle and a
luxury shopping center replaced the block containing the Eden apartments
building, shops and cinema.
