Tempt your tastebuds at Central Market, a traditional Vietnamese market nestled on the banks of the Thu Bon River. Arrive at the break of dawn to watch local fisherman haul their catch out of the water and into the market, offering some of the freshest seafood in the downtown area. You can see fresh produce, livestock, and silks dotted across colorful, noisy stalls, with vendors enthusiastically pushing their wares. Browse several stalls before choosing your purchase, and be sure to to bargain hard--vendors inflate prices for out-of-towners. Put Central Market on your schedule, and learn what else deserves a visit by using our Hoi An trip planner.

  • This market is mainly open during the day, and the place to go for lots of fresh produce and souvenirs. Well worth a visit if you can't make the night markets on the other side of the river.
