Tourists are happy to ride in Vietnam not only to get acquainted with this amazing country, but also to make a profitable shopping. This country is known to Shopaholikov low prices and high quality popular products. Such a rare combination attracts numerous shopping tourists in Vietnam. They experience certain difficulties in choosing: a lot of goods and they are so good that they are simply lost: buy this time or leave the next one. Yes, and you can buy as much as you will not take away.

Vietnam usually buy jewelry, including precious stones, as well as silk, shoes and clothing, ceramics, coffee and tea, dwarf bonsai trees, skillful products from stone, wood, balms based on snake poison and healing herbs, including the "Star", which was brought from here in Soviet times.

In order not to spend extra money on purchases, you need to be able to bargain. Sellers usually request an overestimated price, calculating that in the process of bargaining it can be somewhat reduced. Such a trading method allows you to get mutual pleasure: the seller rejoices that he took his own, and the buyer - that hit the price.

Souvenirs

Bring gifts for friends and acquaintances. Think about it better at the beginning, when not all the money is spent and there is time to choose the items inexpensive and original. There are many things everywhere wherever you are. They differ only at the price: in places of tourists, they are more expensive, as it is cheaper, it is cheaper.

Highly good gift - Embroidered paintings and tapestries. It uses vintage manual technologies here, and it is necessary to hurry to purchase such things while talented human hands have not replaced impersonal sewing machines.

Beautiful manual products made of bamboo, mahogany, ivory, silver or ceramics. Buy and vodka with a cobra leaning in it, and other exotic things. In the course of tourists, opium tubes, characteristic Vietnamese Non hats, products from natural silk, traditional T-shirts and caps in local interpretation.


Digital technology

Various electronic products are selling cheaply, as in many countries located closer to China. The problem is that the Russian keyboard is almost unrealistic. Also with a license for Kaspersky Anti-virus product - it is cheaper here in Russia, but there is no Russified version.

In specialized stores a large selection of laptops and smartphones of all kinds. Sold DVD with movies, games and music, 1 dollar per disk.

Many buy iPhone 5. If you buy it in Ho Chi Minh City, it will have to pay for the iPhone 5 32GB about 29 thousand in terms of rubles. In dollars, this is $ 950, and in Dongs - 16-19 thousand. In Nha Trang, the same purchase will cost 50-100 dollars more expensive.

Clothes and shoes - cheap and high quality

In Vietnam there are production facilities of such well-known firms as "adidas" and "nike", as well as other companies that are no less well-known. This suggests that the country is slow, but correctly goes to the leading roles in the list of countries - the world workshops on the sewing of things. Vietnam has already risen in second place after China on this list. Here we sew clothes, make shoes and bags, produce other goods, and the materials are natural, and the work is first-class. So shopping tourists from Western Europe Go here, for the best combination of price and quality.

Vietnamese products are exported to Europe, Japan, Russia and America. This is, first of all, clothes made of natural silk and flax, leather products (often under popular brands).


Pearls Vietnam

In Vietnam, pearls and produce, and grow. The best is on the island of Fukuok, on the farm there, but there are many farms that are engaged in pearls. Interested parties ride on the coast, closer to manufacturers. It is bad that such purchases can afford only one who understands the pearls. In Vietnam, a guarantee for selling pearls is not practiced, it does not give it in stores, and the market all the more. Therefore, each or buys NAVAUM, or turns to local expertise, in Ho Chi Minh City, there is such a service. At the same time, the Vietnamese pearls are about 20-30% cheaper than in other countries.

Precious stones and metals

In Vietnam, it is worth buying precious products, especially inexpensive, of silver and gold. The finishes in them are sapphires, or pearls, or ivory. Such, for example, different beads, earrings and pendants, silver rings with ivory.

Furniture

The furniture itself is good, with elements made by hand, with forging and inlay, with wood carvings. It costs here much cheaper than in other countries, but the problem is the delivery of such bulky and heavy things.

However, if you travel by the sea, it is quite feasible. Many Russian tourists who bought furniture in Vietnam, send a purchase on some cargo ship, and they themselves return home and wait for her arrival.

Also in Vietnam you can make useful and interesting acquisitions for the house. This is, first of all, reed mats, household goods made of fabric or bamboo. For example, different types of kitchen utensils.

Ceramic subjects

In the suburb of Hanoi, Bat Chang, many enterprises that are engaged in the production of porcelain and ceramic products. These are large factories, and small workshops. Here they produce dishes and decorative products, useful and amazing.

If you go from Hanoi to Halong, on the way it is worth staying for a small bazaars. He specializes in ceramics. There is a very large selection of similar products, and the price is significantly lower than in other places.

What is not worth buying

Plant products purchased here can be confiscated on Russian customs if this cargo is not accompanied by permits. Alas, if the products are bought on the market, nobody, including the buyer himself, does not think about such documents. In risky categories fall room Flowers, vegetables, fruits, seeds, batt and ginger, palm leaves and lotus, greens.


Places for profitable shopping

There are many such places in the country. True, if you want to twitch cheaper, you need not to go trade areasintended for tourist business, and in those stores, where the local population prefers shopping. There prices are significantly lower, and the quality is excellent. You can contact your guide with such a request, he will not refuse you. True, cases that the guide has an agreement with some familiar store owner, and takes clients to it. Here as lucky, because such a seller can make a good purchase. Here are some of the beloved among tourists, shopping areas:

  • The old town in Hanoe is good in order to bring all souvenirs at once and forget about this problem before the end of the trip. There is a huge selection and good prices. At the same time, you can look into modern shopping centers, which are also sufficient. So the journey through this area will be extremely effective.
  • TRC "Daimond" will make it possible to relax between purchases. There is a large selection of image products for wealthy customers.
  • Tax Trade Center, on the contrary, offers inexpensive goods, imported and local. The quality of products is excellent, therefore tourists who want to buy good things, there are a lot here.
  • Mongkai and Langeson, cities on the Chinese border, also attract experienced shopaholics. Here, border crossings, markets spread out, for which it is interesting and profitable. Products are mostly local, inexpensive and high-quality.
  • The small town of Hoian, with narrow streets and minor shops, is very attractive for tourists. It is famous for sewing machines designed for express tailoring. They are inexpensive, they work like a clock, so they are going from everywhere. Here, in place, you can order an individual tailoring. 4-6 hours after removing the measurement, you will get an almost finished product that needs fine refinement.
  • Market Ben Thhan, in the city of Ho Chi Minh, former Saigon. Shopping Square here are extensive and expensive, but goods for rarity cheap. In fact, it is a huge bazaar, a great place for shopping. Tourists do not deprive him with their attention.

Taks-Free in Vietnamese

Return is made when flying home from Ho Chi Minhine or Hanoi, however, 15% of the amount to be returned is removed as payment for the service.

It is also necessary to remember that the check for Taks-Free is valid 30 days, after which the right to return the cost is lost. And not all goods purchased in Vietnam are subject to refund. In particular, there is a list of items of goods that are prohibited from export or seized from turnover. There is already something likes not only the loss of VAT refund, but also direct losses. Therefore, with such a list you have to read in advance.

With merchants in the market and with sellers in stores will be more pleasant to communicate if you learn at least a few words in Vietnamese. It:

  • "Mua" means "buying";
  • "Deputy For" - "Discount".

If you know at least these 2 words, you can make it clear to the seller that you consider its price unnecessarily overpriced. True, the sellers are usually owning English, and some have not forgotten Russian. Interest in the language was born during the war with America, when the Russians fought on the side of Vietnamese, and therefore the attitude towards Russian tourists still painted sympathy.

Bonus for curious. What to try from local cuisine

Local dishes, which is unique, although there are many of the Indian, Thai and Chinese.

Vietnamese dishes are not too fat and not sharp. They will not create special gravity for the stomach. One of the main products for many dishes is Fig. The kitchen also includes a lot of seafood, fruits are actively involved. There are exotic dishes, for example, from cobra, other snakes and lizards. Such a dish is considered a delicacy, it is served in famous Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh restaurants, fanta and other cities.

Delicates are offered in expensive institutions, but the country has an extensive class of trade and catering enterprises that are designed for a poor client.


There are many such institutions among cafes and restaurants, and among hotels. Here you can get dinner for a couple of dollars in the calculation of one client. In small restaurants that are not particularly popular, served deliciously cooked food. Lunch on four can cost 10-15 dollars. Coffee in Vietnam is very popular, it is always drunk and everywhere, hot, and cold, in its pure form or adding milk and spices.

The famous Dalatskoe wine is produced in Vietnam on Italian technology and is distinguished by excellent quality. The connoisseurs put it above many French brands, despite the fact that the Vietnamese version is cheaper.

In addition, in supermarkets and street shops, a large range of alcoholic beverages, tinctures, beer, non-alcoholic beverages of local production and brought from other countries are exhibited for sale.

What is worth buying in Vietnam

First of all, we consider the categories of Vietnamese goods widely sought-after tour and deal with what the benefits of buying them are.

Clothes and shoes

Adidas, Ni Ke, Hugo Boss, Valentino, Gucci ... This list of famous brands of clothing and shoes can be continued. And it is important that their licensed plants are in Vietnam. And it's not about the release of dubious products for third-world countries. These are goods that then fall into focus shops, say, Western Europe, the United States and Japan.

With a high concentration of brand plants, it is logical that part of the branded products from them goes to local shops and shopping centers of large cities. And the price of them in shopping centers and Vietnam stores at the ports are less than anywhere else. This is the chance of the country's guests to save on high quality.


And if the "branded" question does not interest you - in Vietnam, there are many light industry factories that "take quantities". In other words, we produce a good product at a very low price. The buyer still remains in winning if it looks at local markets and in small stores focused primarily on trade with local residents.


Pearl

Pearls - one of business cards Vietnamese shopping tourism. Here you can buy an original pearl high Quality For the price, an order of magnitude (30-5 0%) is lower than export. But here the tourist needs to be attentive. In order to save the most, you will have to move away from large settlements of Vietnam and go to the province where pearls directly void and mined.

For example, it is believed that the best pearls - with a popular tour of the British Island of Fukuok, part of which still occupy fish farms And the farm pearls. The pearl thread "On the spot" can be found even for $ 1 0, in cities - already an order of magnitude more expensive.






Electronics

Carry from Vietnam large household appliances It is meaningless, as you will not save due to the door of delivery. But you can look after, for example, a laptop or smartphone. Here the same principle has the same principle as in the light industry - large world manufacturers collect corporate products in Vietnam. It is economically beneficial for them. Part of the goods goes to PR), and their cost will be lower. The only thing, then the technique will need to "reflash".

Important moment: buy equipment better only in BR informous stores, so as not to face fakes. You are not lucky to pass back the goods that broke in two weeks?

Souvenirs

In the Vietnam of the PR accently original sectors of decorative and applied art, acquaintance with whom will save you from the need (and desire) to buy home banal fridge magnets.

Folk masters create impressive consumer goods and life. Special attention deserves products from bamboo, valuable Ran of Answer, headlights. This is an elegant, filled with a flavor of a local culture. Decorative dishes, carved paintings from wood, caskets, trays, vases, combs and much more.

Most of the goods of decorative and applied art are in the price range up to $ 2 0. That is, you will be able to take away from here many wonderful casual things - for your home and for gifts.

Souvenirs are better to search in the markets (for example, Ben Thhan in Ho Chi Minh City), or in small craft workshops and shops with large manufactories. As for the latter, good examples - the village of artisans Than Ha (Tha NH HA) in the province of Quannam, where it is worth going for clay souvenirs, or Hoian city (Hoi An) with its numerous shops of products from bamboo and mahogany.






Leather products

Under the skin products imply local exotic. If you have frightened the prices of the accessory of crocodile leather, python, ostrich or skate in your city, it's time to look in search of wallets, visits, bags, covers and belts. Many specialized stores of leather products are located in Nha Trang, also in the center of the mountains, you can look at the market of My Cho.

I advise separate attention to the leather products - local exotic. If the prices of crocodile leather accessories, python, ostrich or skate in their city are frightened, it's time to look in search of wallets, visits, bags, covers and belts. Many specialized shops of leather products are located in Nha Trang, also in the city center you can look at the home of My Cho.

Important:the risk to purchase a fake is great, so do not hesitate to demand quality certificates.


Alcohol

Also connoisseurs of good alcoholic beverages should pay attention to the brands of the Vietnamese Roma. He is not so famous in the world, like Cuban, but famous for good quality at low price. Important: Do not buy the cheapest options for 2-3 dollars per bottle and immediately focus on the price of 10-15 dollars. This, for example, Rhum ChauVet and I SC Rum brands.

What other types of alcohol should be purchased, you can read on the page

Pharmaceutics

Goods for health from Vietnam deserve a separate article. The Vietnamese has long been formed a whole industry of exclusive medical drugs based on unique flora and fauna of their country. These are therapeutic, painkillers and rejuvenating cosmetic products from the serpentine poison and fat, shampoos and toothpastes with the addition of coconut oil and much more.

Medical products are actively exported from Vietnam to decades, but buy them here - much cheaper. $ 1 -2 per tube painkillery ointment - real price. For example, in Russia, such a tool will cost 2-3 times more expensive.

As an example, good tool From the pain in the joints and muscles from Vietnam - Cobra Atkesan. Even for the treatment and prevention of a cold here, you can purchase a widespread ointment ointment in Soviet times. And to improve the work of the brain and the concentration of attention, it is worth paying attention to the popular natural preparation of Cebraton on a herbal basis.


Furniture

Since the time of French colonial presence, Vietnam is famous for the whole world with original furniture from valuable breeds Tree. The handmade furniture industry began to revive in 1 990s and constantly increases export turns. In Vietnam itself, you can buy exclusive handmade furniture headsets - products of incredible beauty in a high, but reasonable price.

A large selection of products can be found in the "furniture" village of Dong Ki, where almost all residents specialize in this craft.

In this case, the question arises in the delivery of cumbersome furniture. But the growing tourist demand gives rise to a proposal: today the furniture business is closely related to logistics companies that can carry out the container delivery of your shipping by the sea in any corner of the world - at a bargain price and in a short time.


Silk

Vietnam is one of the world's largest silk manufacturers in our time, which is famous for the good value for the price and quality of silk goods as a whole.

You can buy silk products everywhere, but there is a risk in the market to face fake. It is best to pay attention to stores with silk products factories. All sorts of clothes, pajamas and bathrobes, linens And fan and from silk - what is worth paying attention to.





One of the classic crafts of Vietnam is silk-screen printing, or embroidery of silk patterns. Such art objects will perfectly complement the home interior with impressively beautiful plots with oriental flavor. A number of Fabre IR with corporate stores focuses in the city of Hoi An (for example, XQ company).

Tea and coffee

Approximately every fifth bundle of coffee on the planet is Vietnamese. Vietnam is one of the world's largest exporters of this drink, and there has long been strict manufacturing traditions. Vietnamese coffee is a genuine abundance of varieties and fragrances at an affordable price. In other words, capture home only one pack of coffee will not work.

Coffee gourmet should be considered to consider purchasing elite varieties of coffee, such as Chon. This variety is obtained by passing through digestive system animals (luvakov). The grains are not completely digested, but losing coffee bay and acquire a unique taste and flavor palette. A kilogram of such coffee can cost $ 1,000 and more, but it is still more profitable than buying the same products at home.

As for tea, there is also a rich selection here: it is traditional black and green species, and oolong, and teas based on ginseng and lotus, and even red tea.
