Vietnam is not yet a shopping paradise like Hong Kong or Bangkok , but there still a huge variety of souvenirs and traditional handicrafts (mostly lacquer ware ). The most popular items for foreigners are the remains from the Vietnam War-Army watches - clothing - compasses and all kinds of military equipment left behind by the US Army over 20 years ago . Vietnam is hoping to become a signatory of GATT so these low prices may not last forever . Jewelry is available but extreme care must be taken to ensure the quality of any piece . Vietnamese are very skilled jewelry makers but sometimes the gold or stones are of inferior quality . The best place for shopping for antiques or replicas is in Hanoi . As with most countries , the Vietnamese Government does not allow the export of any item of historic or cultural significance . Saigon has the best buys for modern goods like CDs and clothing.
