Great market of HanAuthentic Hanoi night market experience! Busy, colorful, and full of local energy. Great place for street photography, fresh fruit, and late-night food. Best visited after midnight for the real atmosphere. Very lively wholesale night market with a unique local vibe. Crowded but exciting, especially for tourists who want to see real Hanoi nightlife
I have been to a lot of markets in Asia as I love to visit them to see the locals interact. While it is expected that the markets would be a bit dirty, this place was the worst of all the markets in Asia that I've been too. There is garbage everywhere. The vendors hose down their area which mixed with cardboard/paper, causing sludges. This makes it slippery and dirty to walk around. Make sure not to wear sandals or flip flop if you're visiting as your feet will get dirty (I had on hiking boots and stop got my pants dirty). Note that there are cleaners going around picking up garbage/sweeping the floors, however, they can't keep up. The stalls are abundant with fruits and vegetables. This market is mostly wholesale hence why you'll see large quantity of fruits/veggies. There's the seafood area where you can see live fish, shrimps, turtle, snails, etc. You can also find the meat section that sells pork, beef, and poultry. There's even live chicken/ducks for sale too.
Go really early ideally before 7 You can find a sugar cane spot for juice really hand made and procininf cane you find then in the town
This is a market that starts at dawn. There are all kinds of goods, from fruits, vegetables, flowers, fish, meat. Fruits are the main trade. If you are thinking of visiting this place, visit between 3 and 4 o'clock in the morning. By 6 o'clock in the morning, many shops will already be closed. It is a market worth visiting to feel the dynamism of Hanoi. After visiting, go across the street to eat pho. Overall, super great!
This place is an absolute paradise for those looking to purchase fruits at wholesale prices. With an abundance of options, you're sure to find exactly what you need. Not only that, but the area around here is simply stunning, making it a great spot for photography. Plus, the bargains here are unbeatable, so you can rest assured that you're getting a great deal. So, take your time and explore this vast location - you won't be disappointed!
