  • the markets – spontaneous and organized. They have a lot of souvenirs and handicrafts from local craftsmen. And on the market you can go shopping or for dinner – prepare traditional dishes right in the middle of shopping rows
  • in shopping centers and shopping malls. They open very early – at seven-eight in the morning, and work almost until midnight
  • in shops and small shops. Here you can find many exclusive things and works of art.

It is worth noting that in Vietnam there are almost no sales, and seasonal discounts are not welcome. Therefore, if you see a discounted product, carefully study it. Usually, local entrepreneurs reduce the cost, or if the product is not in demand, or if it is defective.

But you can always bargain in stores with sellers. It even needs to be done – such a local tradition. If you agree to the first price, the trader may be offended. After all, by refusing the ritual of bidding, you show disrespect to him. By the way, at the auctions it is possible to throw off the price in two-three times – sellers initially strongly overestimate it, providing obligatory bargaining.
