Mai Dong Market (red line) is famous for being a bustling market with more than 300 stalls. However, it is currently being relocated to serve the Tam Trinh Street expansion project.

Desolation inside Mai Dong market after nearly 300 traders moved out.

Garbage overflowed in the market kiosks.

Currently, there are only a few stalls selling vegetables, meat, and fish trying to hold on, waiting for the day the market is completely demolished.

The aisles in the market are no longer bustling with trade.

The remaining goods are being liquidated by traders to recover capital.

For many years, Mai Dong market has not been repaired, and is now degraded, old and rickety. Goods are also arranged in a makeshift, messy manner.

Currently, Mai Dong market management board has closed most of the market entrances, only one door on Linh Nam street is open.

The traders were also informed that they would move to Linh Nam market. However, according to many people, Linh Nam market is quite far from the current market, so they did not choose this option.

Many kiosks have moved to other premises instead of moving to Linh Nam market.

Mai Dong Market has been operating since the mid-90s of the last century, with more than 300 traders operating.
