Description

Explore the largest Chinatown in Vietnam and enjoy the authentic Chinese atmosphere in Cholon for hundreds of years. This part of the city is located in districts 5 and 10 of Ho Chi Minh City, and it is a perfect spot to see classical Chinese architecture. It is a place of great history and abundant culture. It survived many difficult times, such as the peasant rebellions and the dramatic Vietnam War.

Today, as modern buildings emerge in Cholon, the historical clan associations, temples, and monasteries that serve as markers of history still reflect the relationship between the Chinese community and the state. These locations continue as centers of Chinese cultural activities. Ride a scooter and watch the remarkable streets, lively markets, beautiful church, temple, and pagoda with our friendly guide!

Nice tour

Although it wasn't a real discover Chinatown (we saw there only one place) The guide (John) was amazing! He speaks fluent English and he has a lot of fun facts. I really enjoyed spending time with him on the tour Thank you

Great tour with Navi

Really enjoyed the Chinatown Scooter tour with Navi and her friends! They were pro navigators and safe drivers amongst the typical chaos. Navi was very knowledgeable and pointed out additional details before I had to ask. Navi and her friends were also super kind and answered all our questions patiently. Navi was also very sweet with my mom who joined the tour. Highly recommend this tour with Navi!
