D Home 2 is on Trần Đình Xu in the centre of District 1, and several religious sites are within a few hundred metres. Nam Thành Holy See is 250 m away, Thien Phuoc Pagoda 350 m and the Nhà Thờ Đức Bà Fatima church 400 m, while Chùa Lâm Tế, another pagoda, is also 400 m away.

The Bến xe Sài Gòn bus station is 650 m away, and Ben Thanh Station, on Metro Line 1, is 1.4 km.
