Not really the same as some China towns in other countries, China town was set up by the end of 18th century when the Minh dynasty in China was overthrown. Many Chinese faithful to the Minh ran to Vietnam for help and peace and business and were permitted by the Vietnamese Lords. Now there are almost half a million Chinese with many shops and family factories.
Binh Tay market is always crowded as a wholesale market. The Soai King Lam material market is very fascinating. Fathers Tam’s catholic church for Chinese is historical when the first president of the south Ngo Dinh Diem and his brother hid themselves to avoid the coup-d’etat in 1963. China town never sleeps with all interesting activities.
