Han Market

This guide to Han Market opens with a tailor racing to finish an ao dai before a waiting customer, then traces a much older story historians pieced together from a stone stele at the nearby Long Thu Pagoda, dated to 1657. It follows the market through a French-era rebuild and its 1990 reconstruction, and a seventeenth-century merchant route map that names a market stop here long before any of that. Look for the dried goods on the ground floor and the tailors and fabric stalls one flight up.
