If you have limited funds for items to buy, or let say you don’t have enough room in your luggage, here are some of the most popular items you can bring home as souvenirs of your holidays to Vietnam.

Here are my top list of souvenirs that one could buy and taking back home as a memory of Vietnam:

Conical Straw made hat Called Non La in Vietnamese language and is undoubtedly one of the labels that is featuring the Vietnamese people. This conical straw made hat or cap is used primarily to protect you from the sun heat and the rain protection. Vietnam is a tropical country; in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) only have two seasons: the dry season and rainy season. But in the north, in Hanoi (the capital of Vietnam) have 4 stations like most of the Europe. The other function besides being a conical hat is to use it to collect rainwater, or use it as a basket to carry the fruits.

When traveling through the country you will see almost middle aged people and older are wearing this kind of nationwide used conical hat, they use if in rural areas, particularly farmers.

In big cities like Hanoi and Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City), is used by street vendors who work under the sun and this have become one popular item to buy among the tourists. Also, this beautiful conical hat has two versions one used for man and the other one for women. To buy your conical hat just walk around the Hanoi’s old quarter or the same area’s in other cities and you see almost every souvenir shop has them to sell, the price is vary from 25.000 to 50.000 Vietnam Dong ( US$ 1 to 3)

Ao Dai, the typical Vietnamese dress Ao Dai (pronounced Ao Zai), is the Vietnam’s typical, or traditionally used dress of Vietnam is represents the country’s national dress as well as the symbols of the Vietnamese culture, Ao dai usually comes with a conical hat and are the most distinctive characteristic of the culture of Vietnam.

The ao dai dress (ao zai) or traditional costume of Vietnam, is used by both men and women, but today, you see more Vietnamese women regularly use is to participate in photo shooting, or in weddings, or just wear as a habit, in the weekend you see a bunch of different Vietnamese female taking memorial photo along the Hanoi’s Old Quarter and or the west lake, for me this is the most beautiful dress along with the Kimono of Japanese people. Particularly, the Vietnamese ao dai dress is considered as an elegant garment. Vietnamese women usually wear ao dai in important events, celebrations, weddings; solemnest acts (such as funerals or other religious ceremony at a pagoda) and interestingly, the girls who go to school and college wear ao dai in mondays (students in general). An Ao Dai price is vary depending on the quality from 700.000 VND to the 1500.000 VND and the best place to buy them is the Kim Ma Street in Hanoi.

Vietnamese Silk The silk is no longer belonging to the luxurious dress, nowadays anyone could buy a silk fabric and make her own silk custom, the silk’s in Vietnam are originally made of the country’s Silkworm farm, one of the best places to buy the Vietnamese silk as a souvenir from your holiday to Vietnam will be the old quarter of Hanoi, there are particularly an special area dedicated to the silk fabric sellers you can check them and choose your own silk, the cost of Silk per meter is vary from 100.000 VND to 200.000 VND depending on the quality and the quantity of the Silk you are going to buy.
