Wish You Were Here – Postcard From Ben Thanh Market, Saigon
This morning we were at Ben Thanh Market in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) bright and early – just after 7 AM.
We wanted to witness the local market activity – setting up food stalls, preparing goods, stocking every nook and cranny of small retail spaces.
We also wanted to observe the local customers making their purchases for the day. Fresh fish (some of it was still wriggling until smacked on the head with a mallet), meat, along with an endless variety of vegetables and fruits were among the many purchases being made.
We sure are glad we made it to the market so early – it was definitely worth getting up for!
Happy Travels!
