Little
Saigon has the largest concentration of
Vietnamese shopping in the world outside Vietnam. This rapidly
expanding Vietnamese shopping district is concentrated in
a three square mile area bordered by Westminster Boulevard,
Bolsa Avenue, Magnolia Street, and Euclid Street.
To really appreciate the charm of Little Saigon you need
to park the car and walk through the shopping areas.
A good starting point is the Asian Garden
Mall which houses the biggest jewelry market in Orange
County. Little Saigon features a wide variety of Vietnamese
shops, restaurants, bakeries and boutiques. Enjoy the
flavor of Vietnam and dine at one of the dozens of Vietnamese
restaurants. With so many places to eat to choose from
yo might want to ask one of the locals to recommend their
favorite.
Little Saigon gets very busy on weekends,
traffic is backed up on Bolsa Street and parking spaces
are hard to find. If possible plan your trip to Little
Saigon during the week. There is no other Vietnamese shopping
experience like this anywhere else in the United States.
Plan on spending a half a day exploring Little Saigon
and if you are visiting on the weekend arrive early to
avoid the usual traffic congestion.

The main business district of Little Saigon is located in
a section bordered by Bolsa, Westminster, Magnolia, and
Brookhurst Avenues. Most of the restaurants and shops are
located within these boundaries.
Little Saigon has expanded beyond this area and you can
find Vietnamese stores for several miles in all directions.
The heart of Little Saigon is still along Bolsa Street,
and this should be your starting point for exploring Little
Saigon.
The Vietnam War Memorial is located about two miles away
in Freedom Park, 14180 All American Way, Westminster. Asian
Garden Mall is located at 9200 Bolsa Avenue, Westminster
California.
