The story

Tan Dinh Market has served its neighborhood for a century. Tailoring fabric is the specialty upstairs, while the ground-floor wet market and food stalls do a brisk local trade in banh canh, sweets, and grilled things. Come hungry and curious.

This is everyday-Saigon shopping: floors of silk and fabric, morning food stalls locals queue at, and almost no tourist markup. The bubblegum-pink church across the street is a bonus photo stop.

Local tips

Photograph the pink Tan Dinh Church across Hai Ba Trung first, then eat your way through the market's food aisle — and Banh Xeo 46A is a 3-minute walk away.
