(Baonghean.vn) - Sa Nam - Nam Dan town is known as a bustling trading and commercial center of the whole region. In the past, this place was likened to "Sa Nam on the wharf under the boat/ Banh duc with two rows of beef and me thit thit" famous from the South to the North of Nghe An.
Now, Sa Nam people no longer trade on the wharf or on boats, because the road is many times more convenient than before, but Sa Nam market is still very bustling with many diverse and typical products.
Coming to Sa Nam market, people can freely choose from products for farmers such as plows, hoes, baskets, traps, baskets, trays... to household goods such as electric fans, aluminum pots, bowls, chopsticks, clothes and even school books. Along with local gifts such as banh duc, banh ke, peanut candy, vermicelli... have become unique products of Sa Nam market.
But what we feel is that Sa Nam market still retains its rustic soul through the items sold at the market.
