Ho Chi Minh City: Chinatown Hidden Gems Walking Tour

Ho Chi Minh City: Chinatown Hidden Gems Walking Tour

Cholon is Saigon’s heaving Chinatown district. It’s a great place to spend at least half a day.

It's also a fantastic place to grab a bite. This place is now a significant commercial center of the Chinese in Ho Chi Minh City which still preserves the precious values of culture, religion and architecture dating back thousands of years. The pipe-shaped tiled roofs in Chinatown streets combining with typical Chinese architectures feature a unique classic beauty. Aside from wandering the streets of Chinatown, you can also have a taste of local flavors through a mini food trip! Drink the famous Vietnamese coffee, have a plate of Chinese duck soup noodles, and enjoy a hearty dumpling and sweet soup meal. We will discover the best places like: Hao Sy Phuong Alleyway Ba Thien Hau Temple Cho Lon Masjid, Vietnam Khu ăn uống chợ Thủ Đô Soai Kinh Lam Market St Francis Xavier Church Binh Tay Market Bưu điện quận 5 End at a local eatery This excellent guided walking tour will blow your mind with many interesting facts, mysterious religious stories and legendary anecdotes among top destinations in Chinatown.
