Opening very early (around 4:30 - 5:00 AM), Binh Minh Oi Coffee is a premier spot for chasing floating cloud seas. The shop is designed with an open space facing directly towards the pine hill valley.

While Binh Minh Oi leans towards sunrises, Loi Cua Gio stands out with its Xom Leo sunset scenery. Inspired by Northwest architectural styles featuring wooden houses, stone walls, and marguerite gardens, it is a sensible choice if you prefer not to start your day at 4–5 AM. In the late afternoon, choose a spot with an open view, order a drink, and wait as the city transitions from daylight into warm hues.
