Within its bustling halls, visitors can explore a diverse array of products, including fresh produce, spices, textiles, handicrafts, and more, all while soaking in the vibrant atmosphere of this iconic market.

• The Independence Palace - Surrounded by royal palm trees, the distinctive 1960s architecture of this landmark government building and the eerie ambiance of its deserted halls make it a captivating spectacle.

Named Independence Palace, it was the residence of the succeeding South Vietnamese president, Nguyen Van Thieu, until his hasty departure in 1975. Designed by Paris-trained Vietnamese architect Ngo Viet Thu, it is an outstanding example of 1960s architecture, with an airy and open atmosphere.

• Sơn mài Đại Việt - The lacquer itself is actually the resin of a tree, mixed with colored pigments and solvents, and applied layer after layer to the object’s surface, producing a shiny and durable finish. Eggshell and mother of pearl may be applied to the surface before the lacquer is applied, with the finished product sanded down to reveal the decoration beneath.

The high quality of resin from Vietnamese lacquer trees, notably those of Phu Tho, was a crucial factor in the rapid development of this art form during the feudal period. Decorated lacquer statues, panels, boxes, and trays (1428-1527) can still be seen at many temples and pagodas.

In subsequent centuries, the use of lacquerware extended to larger items such as wooden chairs and tables.

Since that time, lacquerware has continued to develop into one of the mainstays of the Vietnamese handicraft industry, both domestically and internationally. Today’s most popular items include vases, jewel cases, desk sets, trays, and vertical blinds.
