Quách Thị Trang Square

Quách Thị Trang Square, Public square in District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Quách Thị Trang Square is a paved pedestrian square in front of Bến Thành Market in District 1, Ho Chi Minh City. It features a bronze statue of a rider on a rearing horse on a tall stone plinth with an arch, and a white clock tower with a red-tiled roof and a round clock face.

The square was laid out in 1914 and was originally called place Eugène Cuniac. It was renamed Diên Hồng Square in 1955 and later received its current name after the country's reunification.

The square is named after Quách Thị Trang, a young Buddhist student whose memorial bust once stood here. Today, the open space serves as a meeting point and a place for public events in front of the market.

The square is flat and easy to walk, with low curbs and steps around the central garden. It is busiest in the morning and late afternoon, so visit early or in the evening for more space.

The square appeared in the music video for Kelly Clarkson's song "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" as part of a global flash mob. The footage was filmed by a local youth group at the nearby September 23rd Park.
