Hey Guys,
We are heading to Vietnam in the later part of the year with some friends. One of them is wondering if there are marketssimilar to those found in Thailand & Baliwhere clothing can be bought. You know the knock offs of designer brands etc. If so could someone let me know where

if you want to go shopping it might not be as good as in thailand but i think you could find some good ones here and there. Saigon square is ok but its more for tourist i think. There is a street call Le Van Sy they have lots more clothes and you don't have to bargain either. its a little far from saigon square well 10 min so not bad.

From Saigon Square (39 Le Duan, Distrist 1)
L on Hai Ba Trung
L Vo Thi Sau
R Tran Quoc Thao contiue until Ly Van Sy

good luck and have fun

here is an address to one of the shop so you could tell a taxi to take you there then you can walk around.

106 LÊ VĂN SỸ, Q.3, TP.HCM its called BLUE EXCHANGE can't miss it.

Try Ben That Market, plenty of clothing , travel bags, ceramics etc. Photo and details on my HCMC page. Outside the market from 6pm there are open air restaurants & market food, the restaurants looked very good. Also a night market for clothes etc . Approx 10 minute walk from the Rex Hotel in the town centre.

We have been to Bangkok many times, the Charachuck Weekend market is larger, however there are good buys in HCMC, we purchased many polo shirt US$6, but if you bargain price comes down. Check the quality as different stalls have different quality & price, highest price does not mean best quality.

There is a food market in Ben Thant market day time.

Good Luck,
Mike
