Talat Sao Morning Market

Talat Sao Morning Market is located in Vientiane, the capital of Laos. Despite its colorful past, Vientiane is a very interesting, cute and unobtrusive town, with many different temples and live markets.

The most famous of the many markets is the Morning Market, which locals call Talat Sao. It is also the largest market in Vientiane. It is located in the heart of the city, at the intersection of Khou Vieng and Lane Xang avenue streets. The market is a two-storey building with many small shops and cafes. Works from 7.00 to 16.00 daily, and for the convenience of visitors is equipped with escalators.

Talat Sao is the main attraction of the city for those who can not live without shopping. There you can buy literally everything: local souvenirs and jewelry (in addition, at fairly low prices), household appliances, clothes and shoes, electronics, watches, and next to each other - spices and teas. Particularly worth paying attention to products made of Lao silk and cotton, jewelry with precious and semi-precious stones, various souvenirs of local craftsmen.

Here you can listen to national music, traditional and modern. And as many tourists believe, the main advantage of the Talat Sao Morning Market is that it is possible and even necessary to bargain here.
