Chợ Lớn (lChinese: 堤岸), usually anglicized as "Cholon" in English sources, is a quarter of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. It lies on the west bank of the Saigon River, having Bình Tây Market as its central market. Chợ Lớn consists of the western half of District 5 as well as several adjoining neighborhoods in District 6 and District 11. The quarter has long been inhabited by Chinese people and is considered the largest Chinatown in the world by area.

The Vietnamese name Chợ Lớn literally means "big" (lớn) "market" (chợ). The Chinese (and original) name is 堤岸 (In Cantonese, tai4 ngon6, which is occasionally rendered in Vietnamese orthography as Thầy Ngòn or Thì Ngòn, and in Mandarin, Dī'àn), which means "embankment" (French: quais). The Sino-Vietnamese reading of the Chinese name is Đê Ngạn, but this is rarely used. Vietnamese speakers exclusively use the name Chợ Lớn, while Chinese speakers (both inside Vietnam and in China) are the only users of the original Chinese name.

Ho Chi Minh City offers diners a wealth of choice in cuisines. In addition to the obvious plethora of Vietnamese restaurants, cuisines from many countries are readily available throughout the city. There has a long history of Chinese people living here and of course Cholon, Saigon’s Chinatown, is testament to that. In fact, the city used to be called Saigon-Cholon. It is therefore not surprising that Chinese restaurants enjoy a full and varied representation within city boundaries.

Chinatown itself consist of the western half of District 5 and several joining wards from District 5 and several joined wards from District 6. It is here that you will find many Chinese restaurants will be found in early hours, purchasing fresh ingredients to supply their kitchens. The restaurants in Cholon are mainly small business catering not only for the expat Chinese community but also for the locals in Ho Chi Minh City.

Among culinary heritages of Cholon are survived till these days after tremendous changes, fresh noodles from Chinese residents must be mentioned. If we have to choose a typical dish of Cholon area, fresh noodles must be winner. There are numerous choices of noodle including ribs, char siu, stewed duck, kidneys or wontons. Good noodle threads must be handmade, shining yellow, and elastic until diners finish their bowl.

The giant pot of broth, clear and aromatic is always boisterously boiling with flowing pork ribs. The cook just need a pair of chopsticks to split them up since they are already so tender. The salty taste of char siu pork mixed with crunchy shrimp crackers and oyster sauce create a perfect combination in your mouth. The noodle soup is also delicious, so even when customers order the dried noodles, they usually want to have a bowl of noodle soup along side.
