The story of Saigon’s Japan Town (Vietnam)

I made a presentation at at museum interest group about Saigon’s Japanese enclave. I have lived in this neighbourhood starting from 2013 (just when first of the bars and nightlife started to appear) to just before COVID in early 2021. I returned briefly after that but these days I stay in other Japanese town of Saigon at Pham Viet Chanh. I do sometimes return here for errands or to show people around.
