(Baonghean.vn) – Although not as crowded with buyers and sellers, or filled with all the goods as during market days, the sparse population evokes the old-fashioned, rustic charm of Giát Market…
 |
| Beyond the main market area of Giát Market – a trading hub with a full range of goods not only for the people of Quỳnh Lưu district but also for neighboring areas such as Yên Thành and Diễn Châu during each market day (according to the lunar calendar, the Cầu Giát market is held once every 5 days). This place still retains the appearance of an old rural market. |
 |
| With traditional items like betel nuts, rice crackers... |
 |
| These "specialties" have their own unique flavors, such as Quynh Di fish sauce. |
 |
| Seafood is available in a wide variety and is always fresh. |
 |
| There is a dish considered a specialty of this region that cannot be found anywhere else: the leaves of the "rau lằng" plant. Its slightly bitter and nutty taste creates a unique culinary characteristic of the Quỳnh Lưu coastal area, making it unforgettable for anyone who has tasted it. |
 |
| For men in coastal areas, a trip to the market is incomplete without stopping by the tobacco stall, taking a few puffs, and then buying a few hundred grams to use. |
 |
| The unique charm of a rural market is enhanced by the image of children accompanying their mothers. For them, the greatest joy is going along so their mothers can buy treats... |
 |
At Giát Market, shoppers share a common feeling: the vendors are welcoming and inviting, customers can browse freely, and if they like something, they buy it without much haggling or price negotiation. Many people come to the market not only to buy goods but also to chat and socialize... |
