Dong Ba Market

There are so many stalls for everything. We found this nice couple Nguyen Thao’s stall with everything in a fair price. They were super nice, kind, and allowed me plenty of time to try and search online what everything is. I got some yummy local snacks, nuts, and local oil in the end. So happy to meet this nice couple owners. They’re just at the entrance of the no.14 gate/platform.

Great place to get an authentic local market experience. A whole host of things to buy and a section on the north end (relative to the suspension bridge) with many food stalls serving from 10am until close. Don’t let the reviews of hustling deter you, if you politely say no thank you and move on they let you be. Be clear what you want to buy and be prepared to haggle. Hustle is part of the culture.

Authentic local market, we went on a Monday morning, under 1% tourists. There an upstairs which Sells clothing and material which can be access from stairs in the middle. A good place to practice your bargaining skills and try some local cuisine. The market has sections: kitchen ceramics, baskets weaving, shoes, nuts and grains, fresh flowers, food incense etc.

Huge street market and most famous one in Hue. Very well kept and organised despite the huge amount of items you will find. I just wish the sellers were hustling us less, it felt way too overwhelming and we couldn’t decide where to eat or what to buy as we would get interrupted all the time in our train of thoughts 😥 also bumping prices whilst we speak vietnamese is a bit unpleasant…

The food section was fascinating and had a great variety. Upstairs the fashion was not great and westerners really get hassled to buy. Some nice fabrics

This is an amazing market, seems everything is here, quite big! Upstairs are clothing, bags and silks. We don’t have a very good experience up there, they were very pushy! A lady meet us on the stairs asking us to have a look at her clothing, told her we’re not looking anything in particular just having a look around. But she won’t have it, they will put anything you might be interested in your face! She was getting rude when I wasn’t buying. Price start really high! Another woman won’t let you passed by until they shoved anything they’re selling on your face! They repeat what you saying in a rude way! Downstairs all food, plenty of dry fruits, nuts, anything you can think of and in all different sections. Quite pleasant to look around here because they won’t bother you that much unless you ask! Helpful to have google for translation, most of sellers won’t understand English. Great experience.

Great market and street market outside in the week at least when we visited. Friendly owners help guide you through just about every food type and fruit. This is a special market where you can buy your fruit and veggies and tea and then sit and have some fresh food. Buy a bag for the family some shoes and then some jewelry for the wife or girlfriend followed by desert. Where else can you do that in a market.

A buzzing, vibrant market located just a short walk from Trường Tiền Bridge and right by the Perfume River. If you’re looking to experience the real hustle and bustle of Huế, this is the spot to hit especially towards the last for hours before closing. Inside, you’ll find everything from fresh fruit and local snacks to handmade hats, clothing, shoes, and souvenirs. The variety is impressive, and the atmosphere is very local, energetic and noisy. It can get pretty crowded and intense, especially in the late afternoon. This is the perfect place to grab local specialties or last-minute gifts. The market closes around 7:00 PM, so it’s best to visit in the morning or late afternoon. It’s a must-see spot in Huế.
