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.
