Da Nang Market

We visited Chợ Bắc Mỹ An1, a local market in Da Nang, during our short stay in Vietnam in March 2016.

People at the market, vendors and customers, were very friendly – and most of them probably found it pretty odd to being photographed by me.

Unfortunately, after 40 minutes my battery died – and I didn’t bring a spare2. Otherwise I could have stayed there for hours. So many great subjects and interactions to capture.

Enjoy!

  1. Google translates the name to „North American Market“, which I guess is just a name, because there was nothing particular „North American“ about it…↩︎
  2. I always carry multiple spare batteries. Just somehow forgot to pack them that day.↩︎
