5-minute walk from the Municipal Theatre. A souvenir shop located at the edge of the Dong Khoi area

Starting from Dong Khoi Street, where the Municipal Theatre is located, and crossing the wide pedestrian paradise of Nguyen Hue Street, you will reach Ton That Thiep Street.

Saigon Kitsch is a store with white outer walls located straight down that street. It takes about 5 minutes on foot from the Municipal Theatre. With miscellaneous goods stores, cafes, and restaurants lining the area closely together, it is recommended as a walking course in the Dong Khoi area.

Also, beyond the Saigon Kitsch store, the high-rise building Saigon Centre – Takashimaya towers above. If you have time, it would be good to take a look there too.

“Saigon Kitsch”, a long-established souvenir shop in Ho Chi Minh City

Saigon Kitsch is a long-established souvenir shop that has been in business for over 10 years. It is one of the few shops that remains steadfastly open even now, when most shops were forced to close due to COVID-19.
Some of the employees can speak Japanese, so you can ask for recommendations, and enjoying a little conversation is a unique time you can only have in a foreign country, isn’t it?

Saigon Kitsch handles a wealth of miscellaneous goods that appeal to Japanese tastes, offering a rich variety from miscellaneous goods for young women to souvenirs that business travelers want to buy for their colleagues at work.
Apparel goods like plastic woven baskets and embroidered bags, and furnishings including traditional ceramic handicrafts. In addition, there are modern souvenirs such as aroma candles and perfumes, lining up items that you’ll instinctively want to pick up.

A wide variety of sweet souvenirs. Covering popular brands

There are many souvenir shops on Dong Khoi Street and its surroundings, but you rarely see places that stock sweet souvenirs. On the other hand, at Saigon Kitsch, as you can see, they handle many food souvenirs centered around sweets.
– Traditional Vietnamese “Tea leaves”
– “Chocolate” made with Vietnamese cacao
– “Coffee beans” made with Vietnamese coffee beans
– Vietnamese “Honey”

Products that gift-package Vietnamese specialties like these are lined up.

Vietnamese miscellaneous goods became popular among Japanese women in the 90s, and began to receive high support, focusing on small items.
Even now, knitted bags, Bat Trang pottery, and embroidered goods made from ethnic minority costume fabrics are still in high demand, but with the passage of time, the quality of Vietnamese miscellaneous goods has also improved, and attention has turned to sweet souvenirs that were previously ignored.
