    Cho Lon District (Chinatown) Market

    Posted by AzCaz 19 January 2010

    Much better than Ben Thanh Market. It's far less touristy and the prices are even cheaper. Good quality and not so much haggling needed.

    Cho Lon (Chinatown) Market.

    Ben Thanh market at night

    Posted by Fidge 7 December 2009

    In the evening the market closes but the action moves outdoors.
    Huge foodstalls set up all around the market with stalls selling all manner of things in the adjacent streets.
    Great atmosphere but be careful of potential pickpockets!

    Shopping in Ho Chi Minh City

    Posted by JonasLinh 12 November 2008

    Bargaining is considered the most common way to buy things in Saigon. It is not that complicated if you think of it as a a harmonious yin-yang balance. You want the item, and the seller wants your money. Bargaining is simply a search for the balance between your desire and the seller's. However, should the items have price labels, there is almost no bargaining.

    If you get hungry during your shopping spree, stop for some finger food or relax in one of the Saigon Restaurants along the city's shopping streets.

    As the most active city in Vietnam, Hochiminh city offers an excellent variety of clothing, ceramics, ethnic fabrics and lacquered bamboo.
