Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This is the cheapest market for tourist to get their stuff and souvenirs compare to other market. About 2 km from city center. Caters mainly for locals and tourist. They quote double the price for tourist. Bargain hard. Bargain 50% - 60% from the price they quote you. (Example: if they quote you VD200,000, then pay not more than VD100,000). Advise to tourist: bargain hard and buy all your stuff here. Better prices here compare to the city centre night market.

Best value and very good quality in clothing and shoes. Just barter very hard, never pay the first price, unless your good with it. Just remember you can get it cheaper. I just warn everyone to avoid the vegetables and fruit stands outside, they will rip you off big time. And they don’t back down. Take this as a warning. Do not buy anything from them.

Seen better days, traders tightly packed in but some bargains can be had. The night market has the same stuff but is better laid out with an overwhelming buzz. Enjoyed haggling to achieve a happy price.

Only those who are ready to fight the heat can challenge it.
If you have people who don't sweat well, you can sweat cool, so try it.
I've been looking at something completely different from what ordinary tourists buy, but it's also the cheapest place in all of Natragan.

Definitely an experience and the place for a bargain. Seek out the bright yellow kiosk for a delicious smoothie. Marvel at the amazing range of fruit and veg and enjoy the bustle and friendly nature of the locals.

Decent size market, good for bargain clothes and leather goods. A lot of fresh foods and fruits available mainly for locals though. Worth a look when in Nha Trang

It's about a 15-minute walk from the center. There were lots of group buses and taxis parked there.
I don't think there's any need to go out of your way to get there, but there aren't many tourist attractions in Nha Trang, so it might be worth a visit.
The market looks like a round baseball stadium. There are apartment complex-like buildings around it. I think it's more for people who just come to shop at the market on a daily basis, rather than for tourists. It's not a pretty place.

This was an interesting market to visit with a wide range of fresh Vietnamese foodstuffs available, some still wriggling. There was also a range of souvenirs, clothing, craft items and footwear. (As with quite a few Asian markets reproductions of name brands were certainly present but the things I bought have lasted very well.) Prices generally were cheap anyway but haggling appeared to be the norm and even expected. The various aromas in certain parts were quite unique but it all added to an authentic experience.

We found this very local and less touristy market extremely interesting and fun! You won't experience a market like this anywhere in the west! It seemed to crank up mid morning.
Wear your closed toed shoes or maybe even some rain boots! You'll be walking in fish juice and who knows what!
Local produce, seafood, and freshly prepared food all intertwined in small alleys with mopeds sneaking through. We saw toads for sale, Pig heads, huge fish, squid, eels, and many other interesting items. Delicious fruit available to support the local vendors as well. Smile, and take lots of pictures. You can't speak the language, but a smile speaks a thousand happy words. The vendors were kind when asked for photos.
A fascinating experience and a true taste of authentic Vietnam!

this has everything you need for a Vietnamese market... clothes, jewellery, electronics, shoes, food, you name it its here. Its dirty and the layout is haphazard but you can find what ever you may want.
Barter like crazy & you'll get a good price, offer 40-50% on their original price, walk away when they clutch their chest & they'll chase you down the aisle.
Its an Asian market, don't expect anything else & you wont be disappointed

Hi everyone,
Do you need to haggle for souvenir prices? Are they reasonably priced ?
Thank you.
Written 9 October 2019
Yes haggle for everything, they are reasonably priced but even better when you have haggled

Does anyone know if there is a money changer nearby to the Dam Markets ???
Written 6 August 2017
Hi Ms Wendy F.
By legal, you can change money in any Banks, which are on main street close to the DAM market. Hope you have a good time to visit this market.

Hi Patricia Can you tell me if they take AUD$$ in the market as we will be cruising there in December and only there for the day so don't want to change a lot of cash. Cheers Wendy

What are the toilets like at Dam Market? I am travelling with a disabled person and Asian toilets are not an option.
Written 26 November 2016
I don't recall seeing any toilets nor can I recall any hotels or restaurants nearby. Most of the plumbing outside of western type hotels and restaurants is quite crude and I don't know if you would be able to use them if you could find one suitable. I don't know how often you need the facilities, but agree with the above recommendation that if feasible going before you venture to the market would be better. Have you asked Nha Trang or Vietnam tourism?
