Thuận Kiều Plaza

Ho Chi Minh-staden · Vietnam · Urban site

The three towers of Chợ Lớn are likened to three incense sticks for the dead — and stood near-empty for twenty years.

When Thuận Kiều Plaza was completed in the 1990s it was Saigon's proudest development, yet its apartments gaped empty for decades. The city's explanation quickly turned supernatural: the three towers resemble three incense sticks lit for the dead, and the complex is likened to a ship whose masts were cut, letting all its fortune drain away. There are whispers of workers who died during construction and were buried quietly, of children's laughter in empty corridors and shadows in the darkened windows. When the towers became a COVID hospital in 2021, many in Saigon felt the circle had closed — the three incense sticks finally had souls to watch over.
