Saigon Japan Town

For the authentic "Little Japan" experience, head to the Le Thanh Ton neighborhood in District 1. This elegant enclave is a slice of Tokyo, with glowing lanterns, authentic izakayas, and serene ramen shops lining its streets. It's the perfect place for a quiet meal or after-work drinks in a clean, orderly atmosphere favored by Japanese expats and locals alike. It’s a vibrant, noisy, and uniquely Vietnamese interpretation of a Japanese drinking alley. Also you can see lots of massage parlours.

Travel Cafe Eat Drink - Malaysia & Asia There's a small Japanese street or they called it a Japanese town with lots of Japanese eateries and some are owned by locals. Looks like this place is more lively at night as many shops are still closed

Love this area of District 1, way better than where most tourists go. I'm 11 days into a month long stay. My 5th month long vacation in Japan Town in past three years. Affordable accommodation. Great restaurants and coffee shops keep me coming back.

Nice place to walk around in and grab a bite of authentic Japanese cuisine (there are dumplings, bbq, ramen, sushi etc). There are some bars here too, with some offering more than beer 😉

A really nice place to visit. We went during the day to explore the shops and try some food. I imagine it’s much more spectacular at night, thanks to the vibrant nightlife, so it’s definitely worth a try. However, during the day it doesn’t offer as many options.

Great busy city with lots of options for dining , sight seeing . So many nails spas and cute little cafes .

Saigon Japan Town (8A Thái Văn Lung, District 1) is a unique little alley with strong Japanese vibes – lanterns, restaurants, dessert shops, and lively bars. 🎏 In the evening, the place gets busier with massage parlors and bars where pretty ladies stand outside to approach guests, which gives the area a more nightlife/entertainment feel. 🍻✨ Overall, it’s interesting to walk around – good for Japanese food, drinks, and people-watching – but just be aware of the nightlife scene at night. 📍

Much quieter than it sounds. Very nice bars and restaurants, and so many beautiful girls working there, all dressed in white. It feels a bit different from the rest of Saigon, AKA Ho Chi Minh City. It's a gated neighborhood that you cannot go in with the car.
