Chợ Lớn (listenⓘ, Chinese: 堤岸), usually anglicized as "Cholon" in English sources, is a quarter of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

The quarter has long been inhabited by Chinese people and is considered the largest Chinatown in the world by area.

The Nguyễn lords were then appointed as Viceroy of the South with headquarters at Huế where they encouraged Chinese immigration to settle down into the area.

[7] During the Vietnam War, soldiers and deserters from the United States Army maintained a thriving black market at Chợ Lớn, trading in various American and especially U.S. Army-issue items.

This was the area, near the Quan Âm Pagoda where photojournalist Eddie Adams took his famous execution photograph.
