Overview
Trading since 1908, the city's biggest market spreads 2,000 stalls around a three-story lotus-shaped rotunda. It serves locals first — the dried-seafood and spice lanes are pungently real — and its noodle stalls ladle bun ca and banh can breakfasts for VND 20,000-30,000. Dried mango, cashews and artichoke tea run well below night-market prices. Go in the morning, when it's truly itself.
