Essential Shopping Tips
Starting early at 7:00 AM, Cho Con Market tends to close at about 7:30 PM. This is a rather busy market between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM because all the sellers or residents go there for shopping. A visit during these peak hours promises an exciting atmosphere, just what you need to experience in the Danang Shopping tour.
Haggle at Cho Con Market, but remember, with a smile and ready attitude. The best price-quoting 50-70% of the price and working from there upwards- and being respectful. Realize that bargaining is an art that takes patience and understanding. Remember, vendors always appreciate politeness, so avoid hard bargaining when items may already be sold at a good enough price. The locals are very friendly and open to negotiation, hence making this area a fun part of any Danang Shopping tour.
Respect towards the local way of life is rewarding, especially in contact with greeters and locals. In Vietnamese culture, the following is a sign of good breeding: using both hands to give or receive items, including money. If you want to take a portrait picture or shoot into a vendor’s stall, always ask for permission. Such respectful behavior will enhance your experience on any Danang tour and leave a good impression on international travelers in the community.
Always look after your stuff from the hustling and bustling area of Cho Con. Bring along a safe, cross-body bag to keep close to your body. Markets are always crowded, and though it is generally a safe place, one can never be too careful at Cho Con. These small steps guarantee you a tension-free Danang Shopping tour.
Learning a few basic Vietnamese phrases can go a long way! Adapt a few of these essentials for your Danang Shopping tour:
Dried Seafood – Local Specialties (200,000 – 400,000 VND per kg)
If you want to taste Danang, you would not like to miss trying some of the dried seafood, fish, shrimp, or squid. These items are hot at Cho Con Market, where people generally appreciate eating them for their flavor and shelf life. Buyers would want to check packaging well so that it remains fresh for the journey back home. These perch things show a real taste of Vietnam; thus, these are very preferred on the Danang tour
Vietnamese Fish Sauces and Shrimp Pastes (100,000 – 150,000 VND per bottle/jar)
This is particularly true of the famous Vietnamese fish sauce (nuoc mam) and shrimp paste (mam ruoc) both of which are huge flavor bombs, excellent to cook with. Keep them tightly sealed during travel, mostly to avoid spills. For many, bringing home these sauces is like bringing home a taste of Danang itself, and they are highly desirable on any Danang Shopping tour for a food lover.
Cha Bo (Beef Sausage) – A Danang Specialty (120,000 – 250,000 VND per sausage)
The typical Danang gift is Cha Bo, or the traditional beef sausage, with its spicy taste and chewy texture. Normally, wrapping this in banana leaves can keep this savory treat fresh, and one will be able to bring it easily. This is a good present representing Danang flavors and adds to the cultural contribution of any Danang tour.
Handicrafts and Local Apparel (50,000 – 300,000 VND per item)
From hand-tied silk scarves to Vietnamese traditional hats, Cho Con Market provides an excellent array of handicrafts, and local dress, which is not only beautiful but culturally important, hence ideal keepsakes from Danang Shopping tour. Get yourself handwoven bags, jewelry, and other accessories for meaningful mementos to family and friends.
