A good place to purchase products from proven global brands. Authorized representatives in local boutiques have some freedom of maneuver, so exclusive items can be bought at a discount. But I didn't fall for the brands.. I bought myself (and my family and friends) a decorative small version of the Vietnamese conical hat "non", traditionally made from the leaves of the palm tree and bamboo. I learned with interest that during the Vietnam War, such hats were made from many layers of rice straw to protect civilians from secondary shrapnel during American bombing. It is a pity that such protective decorative hats are not sold, it would be interesting.
I didn't like it very much, there are a lot of people, and the prices are almost as high as in stores. Tourists are brought by bus and therefore the crowd is one, it's good that we lived nearby, one visit was enough for me to be disappointed.😏
You can buy things and all kinds of souvenirs. There are all kinds of goodies. It is necessary to bargain, they discount decently. Nearby you can have a snack and ride rickshaws.
