3. Binh Tay market
Dist.5,one of the main markets of Cholon
Binh Tay Market (Vietnamese: ChợBìnhTây or ChợLớn or ChợLớnMới) is
the Central Market of Cho Lon in District 6, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.Local
Vietnamese refer to it as ChợLớn, while local Vietnamese-Chinese refer it
as 堤岸 - 新街市
"The New Market of ChợLớn", and the Chinese other than those
living in Vietnam known it only as 堤岸 (Dī'àn, or
literally, "embankment"). "The Old Market" (Chinese: 舊街市) did exist in Cho Lon; it used to be on
Nguyen Trai Street in District 5. It was destroyed in a raging fire (exact time
unknown) and soon after, "The New Market" was built. Although it was
used extensively before the fire, local people rarely mention about this lost
market except the elderly, or ones who has lived nearby long enough to know the
history of this old market.
4. An Dong Market:
34 - 36 An Duong Vuong, Dist 5, HCMC
5. Diamond Plaza
- 37 Le Duan, Dist.1, HCMC
Diamond Plaza is Ho
Chi Minh City's largest integrated development. It harmoniously combines
sophisticated offices, glittering serviced apartments, cosmopolitan shopping at
Diamond Department Store and superb family health and entertainment
facilities.
6. American Market
American Market in Ho Chi Minh City is
popularly known as Dan Sinh Market. This market located at the back of city
center specializes in reproduction of ex-military items and fake war souvenirs.
It is mainly due to this feature of Dan Sinh Market that it is also known as
War Surplus Market in Saigon. It is the most offbeat of all the markets in Ho
Chi Minh City. Among the displayed items in Dan Sinh Market, flack jackets,
smashed aviation dials, foot powder, ex-military clothing and equipment are
worth mentioning. The authentic items are gradually disappearing and the copies
are flooding the market. The vendors in the market are very persuasive and may
compel you to buy "souvenirs" from the war like zippo lighters, dog
tags, and shell casings. Most of the displaced items fake. All real stuffs of
the American/Vietnam War are gone long back. If you have good eyes, you can
look for some genuine items like GI zippo lighters, parts of tanks, planes,
bombs and US army issue webbing. If you are looking for gas masks and field
stretchers, you can get those in Dan Sinh Market in Ho Chi Minh City. You can
also search for fatigues or dog tags used in Vietnam War. However don’t expect
to get genuine items as duplicates, with the passage of time, are phasing them
out.
7. Dong Khoi Street:
Dong Khoi Street in Ho Chi Minh City is
famous for its colorful shopping zone. Though there are many other shopping
regions in the city namely Ben Thanh Market, the shopping zones by the sides of
Nguyen Hue and Le Loi Streets, the Dong Khoi Street is well known for hosting
the crème de la crème. Lam Son Square standing at the starting point of Dong
Khoi Street is famous for its embroidered tablecloths and napkins. The prices
of the items offered in Lam Son Square are well within your budget, for
example, a set of eight (napkins along with an embroidered tablecloth) costs
around USD 4-5. You can also select the item of your choice from the endless
supply. The shops on Dong Khoi Street also offer exclusive Custom-made silk
garments. The quality of these silk garments is like that of Singapore or Hong
Kong. The fantastic concordance of colors and intricate workmanship of the
dress materials are worth mentioning. Besides the silk garments and embroidered
tablecloths and napkins, shawls, purses and silk scarves will surely make you
crazy. The shop, which offers a wide variety of handbags made of different
materials, deserves special attention. It is almost impossible to slow down the
frenetic pace of Ho Chi Minh City on Dong Khoi Street.
8. Le Loi Street
9. Nguyen Trai Street
10. Hong Hac Gallery
Hong Hac Gallery of Ho Chi Minh City: Ho
Chi Minh City is known by various names- The Pearl of the Orient, The Pearl of
the Far East, Saigon, The Paris of the East etc. But the city with more than
300 years of history has more to offer than its assortment of titles. The
Vietnamese have had a love affair with arts and culture for long. Its ancient
pagodas, imposing colonial architecture, war and history museums and designer
boutiques, are an eloquent example of this love. The city’s boasts of numerous
museums and art galleries. Many of the galleries exhibit works of local artists
and artisans. A lot of handicrafts outlets can be found in the Dong Khoi Street
near the Bong Sen. These outlets sell all kinds of articles -from tacky tourist
junk to authentic handicrafts. Be careful though because some stuff may seem
overpriced. Our advice: Haggle! A lot of art shops in Ho Chi Minh City center
display paintings of varying quality. You can buy a reasonably convincing
reproduction Van Gogh for peanuts. If you are more interested in serious art
and want to check out the local art scene in Ho Chi Minh City then dropping by
Hong Hac gallery in district 3 is a good idea. This art gallery is situated in
9A Vo Van Tan St., Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. You could also call the gallery
