Phường 11, Administrative ward in District 5, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
This urban division covers 0.31 square kilometers in the center of District 5, housing over 11,660 residents in a dense commercial environment featuring numerous high-rise buildings and service shops.
The ward's formation originated from District 5's old urban development plans, established as a trading and commerce center with diverse population mainly concentrated along major commercial streets.
The area maintains traditions of the historic Chinese community in Cholon, celebrating Lunar New Year and other significant festivals in local temples and community centers throughout the year.
Since July 1, 2025, this ward merged with Cho Lon Ward, requiring residents and businesses to update their addresses in all administrative documents, tax records, and insurance contracts.
This administrative merger represents the first major consolidation of small urban wards in District 5, creating a larger entity to improve local public management efficiency and community services.
