About
Saigon's emblematic market, operating since 1914, with a food area, souvenirs and dried goods.
Why go
A walk through shows old Saigon-style trading right in the center, next to Ben Thanh metro station. The facade and the square in front of the market were repainted and spruced up in early 2026.
Good to know
Crowded with tourists, so ask a few stalls for prices before you bargain. Keep a close hold on your bag and phone when squeezing through the aisles.
On the menu
Dish names as the place writes them.
