Shop till you drop in Ho Chi Minh City's Ben Thanh Market

Ben Thanh Market, also known as Border Green Market, is the largest trade market in Ho Chi Minh City. In the digital economy era, perhaps only overseas can you see such a large market. The indoor high-ceiling space is planned with over 1600 stalls, divided into six major blocks according to product categories. The AB area mainly deals with daily necessities, the CD area mainly deals with personal items and processed food, and the EF area mainly deals with fresh food ingredients. How to visit: The market is particularly large, so go straight to the block you are interested in shopping. Ben Thanh Market has four main entrances, the south gate is the main entrance, which is the door where a large clock stands in the round square outside the market. The south gate mainly deals with cloth products and dry food, and often the most tourists enter from here. There are many clothes and bags in Area A, especially Vietnamese characteristic clothes are a good choice. When shopping here, you must bargain hard, and you can get a pair of Vietnamese characteristic trousers for 100,000 Vietnamese dong. Visit experience: As the weather in Ho Chi Minh City is relatively hot, you can shade from the sun when you stroll around here, but there is no air conditioning in the room, and it is also very hot, and the goods are quite the same, except for bargaining hard, there is no need to compare three stores. The leisure time should not exceed 2 hours. Address: Located in District 1 of downtown Ho Chi Minh City, this is one of the earliest preserved buildings in Saigon, and it is also a landmark building in Ho Chi Minh City. Business hours: 7:00 - 19:00, no tickets required. However, it is also open at night, but only a part of the night market is open.
