Hanoi Manneke Pis

Who can describe my amazement when I saw in a Hanoi shop several copies of our Belgian most famous man: Manneke Pis, a little boy taking a pee
In Brussels, he chanfes most of the days in some typical clothes but here he was ugly and stark naked

Dong Ba market is on the north bank of the Perfume River, just over the Truong Tien bridge. It has hundreds of stalls selling almost everything from clothing, thru houseware to sounvenirs.
Just remember to haggle.

This is a huge 2 or 3 storey can't remember now market selling all sorts of treasures. There are all kinds of desinger labels here to be had a bargain prices. We girls all bought ouselves a pure silk blouse in the traditional style at a cost of $US6 each that was without bargaining hard. If you want fabric like many other markets in Vietnam you will be spoilt for choice.
Just watch out for the rats we had one cross our path that was a s big as my cats at home!!!!
It packs up pretty early about 6pm an dis very hot inside.

Dong Ba Market

This is Hue's largest market and has places with many designer labels. This is your typical Vietnamese market so remember to bargain hard.

Walking shop

When the Vietnamese have had enough children, they use their carriages to make their own driving shops

These are the best buys in Vietnam
