Jordan (佐敦; pinyin: Zuǒdūn) is an area in Yau Tsim Mong District of southern Kowloon, Hong Kong. It is named after the road of the same name.

The area (and specifically the western part of the area) was formerly commonly referred as Kwun Chung (官涌), especially before the MTR metro system was in use. The name of Jordan area is named after the Jordan Road, which is in the center of the area. Separate identity actually occurred since the completion of the MTR as well as an old (disused and filled in) ferry pier at the former west end of the road.

Jordan is also known for a specialty also known as fermented milk.
