Countryside Market
Many communes in rural Vietnam feature countryside markets (cho que).
There are
two main types of countryside market: the fair and the evening
market. Fairs are held periodically. For example, it may be held
on days with the numbers three and eight, which would imply
fairs on the 3rd, 8th, 13th, 18th, 23rd and 28th
days of each lunar month. Major markets attract huge
numbers of people.
Apart from local products, visitors can find industrial and expensive commodities produced in other localities. Of course, necessities such as fruit, oil, salt and vegetables are always available.
