Ben Thanh Market (Chợ Bến Thành) ★★★

Ben Thanh, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam Big market with interesting items, but too crowded and many tout. 2025-01-02 THU The market itself is big and packed with many shops in small streets like a maze. You can be easily lost. That's my shirt that I've bought from my friend in a flea market! Did he buy it in Vietnam? The front of the market seemed to be a popular photo zone. durian 150k The whole durian so expensive that I wonder how many locals enjoy this fruitish thing. There was no price tag and we just picked up with a strategy to find out how much it is by watching the money being paid by other customers. The kind owner even brought a chair for her to sit down enjoying durian. No kiss for an hour. A home-made alcohol that may turn you into a Superman. Try to find Dieo dien trang if you can. Coffee seemed to one of the best sellers as Vietnamese coffee is famous. And you import pear from Korea? back to Ho Chi Minh (2025.1)
