Cholon

Cholon is Vietnam's largest Chinatown, where sprawling Binh Tay Market offers everything from fresh produce and seafood to fabric and lacquerware. Eateries and street food stalls selling Chinese-style noodles, roast pork, and salted duck eggs pack narrow lanes along with traditional herb stores. The 18th-century Thien Hau Temple holds a yearly festival to celebrate the birth anniversary of Mazu, goddess of the sea.
