Trảng Bàng is a town in Tây Ninh Province, Vietnam. It has a traditional artisan industry, and recently has opened an industrial zone for foreign investment. This town has a famous food called "Banh Canh Trang Bang", a kind of pork noodle soup served with local herbs.

Outside of Vietnam, it is most famous for the iconic and Pulitzer prize winning image of a nude Phan Thị Kim Phúc (who had torn off her burning clothes to survive the attack) and other vietnamese children fleeing a napalm attack on the village of Trang Bang alongside ARVN soldiers. The image was taken by the photographer Nick Ut.
