Bros, where do go shopping besides Ben Than Market? I remember the last time i went to this place called Russian Market, was looking for it and could not find it but later found it by accident. Do you guys know where it is?

Been to Chinatown, not that great.

Now trying to recommend from recollection to my friend who is going with her group of colleagues. For sightseeing I have kept some records but not for shopping ha ha

Hi all

need some help for my 1st trip to HCMC :(
i booked a flight to HCMC from 13-16 feb for me and my gf but we cant seem to get cheap hotels in district 1. We've tried the more popular ones like Elios and Liberty 4 but they are all full. I think one option open to us is Royal Orchid? (3-4 stars)

any recommendations for hotel (no guesthouses as gf doesnt want) ? we would like to shop at Ben Thanh market and hopefully look for some tailors to make clothes :)

the road here is amazingly challenging...hahahahaha...
gotta walk and cannot stop...meaning along a busy road...u just walk!ahahahaaa...thats hw i do it...

planning to visit chinatown tomorrow to see if the wholesale things are good...is it really so bad?
or is there a better market to go to, which we can get realli good price and wide variety around HCM city?

after tomorrow i m still thinking if i shld go for mekong delta homestay?or there is really something which we should not miss in HCM city/
