The name of this market came from the 1980s after the Vietnamese
occupation when it was a market for foreigners, and most foreigners were
Russian. The Russian Market has a large selection of souvenirs, curios,
antiques, carvings, Buddha statues, handicrafts, silks, fabrics, DVDs,
inexpensive electronic goods, and many other things of interest to
visitors. It is also the place to buy clothes at big discount prices.
Jewellery and gemstones are big here, but as always, you need to be
careful, and be aware of scams and fakes.
