SAIGON CENTER MALL
This mall consists of stalls on two levels selling fashion, accessories, and jewelry – be aware of forgeries though, and do not forget the old adage that if it looks too good to be true it probably is. Although it’s always bustling with shoppers, Saigon Center Mall is air-conditioned and undercover so it is far more pleasant than shopping in the Ben Thanh Market and it’s generally confirmed that prices are far better here.
RUSSIAN MARKET
You will find clothing suited to a harsh Russian winter at Russian Market, a popular stop for tourists coming from Eurasia. Located inside an air-conditioned building, the market provides branded winter gear, shoes, luggage, and sportswear. They are usually sold at lower prices than at typical outlets. There are big piles of clothing stacked on top of each other, so let us spend some time rummaging for the right size and style.
In addition, the mall also has shops selling Russian food such as vodka, caviar, smoked carp, nuts circuit, salmon eggs, black bread, sausages, canned meat, and souvenirs.
LACQUER FACTORY
Coming to Vietnamese, you should visit a lacquerware factory. These pieces of art are highly prized for their beauty and durability and take skilled craftsmen months to perfect.
People say the art has been introduced to Vietnam in the 1400s, and excavations of some tombs in Vietnam have discovered examples of lacquer dating back to the third century AD. Even though the process of making lacquer has now been streamlined for mass consumption, these factories still make pieces painstakingly with hand.
During the tour, you will have the opportunity to see this process in action. Starting from a plain block of wood, a lacquer artist covers several layers of varying colors of varnish over inlays that may be made of many different materials, such as eggshells or mother of pearl. Your tour guide will talk about a piece of lacquer from concept to completion, leading you along the way as you watch artists at work.
PRIVATE SHOPPING
You can go and buy great souvenirs, gifts or whatever you would like to. Our guides will take you around the city to enjoy and buy flowers, lanterns, and Vietnamese coffee. . . discover handcrafted products like carved hair ornaments, hand-painted fans, silk bags, woven fabrics, and so on.
