On January 29-31 the market will open featuring traditional TET holiday dishes including Banh Chung (square cake), Pho (noodle soup with beef or chicken), bun rieu cua (crab noodle soup), banh cuon nong (steamed rolls made of rice-flour).

An exhibition displaying Dong Ho folk paintings, cau doi do (red parallel scrolls), Bat Trang porcelains and lacquer paintings is also on the agenda.

Every year our rural market receives positive feedback from travellers says the Metropole, and they especially enjoy the  Banh Chung wrapping, conical hat drawing and bamboo pole dancing contests.
