i went to these markets few times this week between 7-12 January , after visiting ben thang and Saigon square this is the right market to go buy everything this has been my observation
1--- ben thang markets they wanted Nike shoes 1.3 - 1.6 million for that price i can just buy original shoes back home you try bargaining with them and they don't wanna sell you the item , what i found that seems like all the sellers have joined hands and worked out the minimum they are all gonna charge for a item and no supplier drops it lower than that price so the price stays high in the market and that's what i observed in Saigon square , then we go to taka plaza here for the same shoe the shop starts at 700 not 1.3 million and then you bargain and you get the shoe at 500 which is actually the real price for that shoe. 2-- same with clothes t shirts i found that was the case in ben and Saigon and then when i went to taka the same exact stock same exact t shirt was for sale at a very reasonable price what it is worth not the escalated price they are asking in ben and Saigon square . Was recommended taka plaza by a grab driver and seems like its the way to go for all your fake t shirts shoes and whatever else you need . went there few times very happy like crocs they wanted 500-600 at Saigon and ben thang here at taka they start with 200k and you can get them for 160k which is about right what you wanan pay for them , so i would highly recommend taka plaza best way to understand is like what i did go to ben and Saigon square and then get the prices and then go to taka and you will understand the difference . And the suppliers are not pushy you don't want it that's ok no big deal compared to ben they will try anything for you to buy the item .
I was a bit disappointed when i went to ben thang and Saigon and thought i wont find the bargains and then i found this plaza done all my shopping there .
Keep few hours aside for this trip took us few hours a day as kept going back to buy...

Taka Plaza in Ho Chi Minh City is a fantastic spot for anyone looking for a fun and affordable shopping experience. It's a great mix of local charm and variety, offering everything from trendy clothes, accessories, souvenirs, and custom tailoring – all under one roof. The staff were friendly and not overly pushy, which made browsing really enjoyable. Prices are also quite reasonable, and many vendors are open to negotiation.
What truly surprised me was the food court downstairs – a delightful bonus! There’s a range of local Vietnamese dishes and snacks, all freshly prepared and full of flavour. It's the perfect place to recharge after shopping without needing to leave the plaza.
If you’re visiting Saigon and want a break from the big malls, Taka Plaza is the place to go. Great deals, relaxed vibe, and delicious food – it ticks...
Read moreSo I am a tourist. I visited and spent a lot money in Taka Plaza. After my family having our meals in the food court I saw a lounge area to rest because my wife wanted to visit the shops. Security twice annoyed and harassed my daughter like she's trying to sleep there. I wanted to allow my daughter to lie down and put her legs up on my. Security said this spot is eating and drinking area so I finished eating and drinking I cant rest here? Made such a big fuss about my 5yr old daughter. This place just started to get customers back again for the shops to make money and they can't use common sense. Next time I will know not to spend money in the food court here....
