Thong Kham Kham Market

In the center of Vientiane is the main city market. It is in a huge 2-storey building which has two parts, first a covered area with shops of all kinds and an outdoor area, with humble stalls protected by tarps. This is a huge market where you can find all kinds of products, clothes, food, appliances, everything you can imagine. For tourists, the highlight is that you can buy all the typical products of Laos, including the famous fabrics. The stalls are rather small and the products are stacked on top of each other, so to see everything in a shop takes time. Haggling is normal because they usually ask over the actual price, especially if they see that buyers are tourists.
