Dam Market (2009-12-20)
Not having the least interest to visit any temples, pagodas or the Buddha (or any water sports such as scuba diving for that matter), we chose one place to see: their market. Dam Market is the largest in Nha Trang which combines food stalls and a whole host of non-food shops.
Merchandise is significantly cheaper than Tokyo's and haggling is
the way to go. We later learned that even locals dicker when they
shop for grocery in the wet market, I think that's a very tiring thing
to do day in and day out. I don't like this kind of shopping
where I have to haggle, I'm not good at it and I always feel cheated no
matter how much bargain I manage to negotiate from the original asking
price. Why can't merchants just do an honest trade?
