Vietnam – a state in Southeast Asia
SHOPPING
Local shopping has two pleasant features: a rich selection of purchases and the lowest prices in the region (if, of course, do not forget to bargain). Shops are open almost every day, seven days a week, from 7:30 to 17:30 – officially, and unofficially – until late evening.
