District 4 (Template:Lang-vi) is the smallest urban district (quận) of Ho Chi Minh City, the largest city in Vietnam. The Saigon Port is located here.

As of 2010, the district had a population of 183,261 and a total area of 4 km².[3] A number of large apartment buildings have been built over the past decade in District 4 including Rivergate Residence, Millenium, Galaxy 9, and Icon 56.

Geographical location

District 4 is a triangular cay[citation needed], surrounded by rivers and canals. It borders Saigon River and the city of Thủ Đức to the northeast, Bến Nghé River and District 1 to the northwest, and Tẻ Canal and District 7 to the south.

There are 13 wards in District 4.

On January 11, 1985, the district consisted of five wards, namely:

  • Vĩnh Hội Ward (which is now divided into four wards numbered 1-4);
  • Lý Nhơn Ward (which is now divided into three wards numbered 5, 6 and 8);
  • Cây Bàng Ward (which is now divided into two wards, numbered 9 and 10);
  • Xóm Chiếu Ward (which is now divided into three wards, numbered 12-14) and
  • Khánh Hội Ward (which is now divided into three wards, numbered 15, 16 and 18).

On December 9th, 2020, Ward 5 was merged into Ward 2 and Ward 12 was merged into Ward 13.[4]

As time went on, these wards split up into between two and four wards each, now giving a total of 13 wards, numbered 1-18. Wards 5, 7, 11, 12 and 17 do not exist.
