Part 14. Duong-Dong. Night and day markets.
Phu Quoc Island. The main city of this island is Duong Dong. It is indeed an city administratively divided, but outwardly it looks very small.
However, everything is in order)
The next two days were planned as days of carefree rest. Only you and the sea.
You can swim, sunbathe, read, even sleep right on the beach. Stop instantly. Just do nothing.
But, as it turned out, I can't do anything) The habit developed during the trip to wake up early and go somewhere, as well as the need to buy some beach things, made me go to town the day after arrival. December 14.2015, day nine, market.
I went to the city in the morning so that the sun would not burn. But the sun did not know that in the morning it should not burn and baked so that the hair smoked.
So the first thing to do was find a market and buy a hat.
In general, to go to the city no more than half an hour, but the heat and road repairs convinced me to take a taxi. The taxi driver took me to the night market, which usually did not work in the morning. I walked through the empty market and out across the side street straight to the waterfront. The city slept) Maybe my morning fell on their siesta, well, literally ten or more people met me on the way. I turned around the waterfront, admired the old boats and went to look for the day market.
Go near the river, to the other bank, check the route on the application Maps me. And here he is, the market.
It is better not to go there unnecessarily. Dirty, motorcycles in a continuous stream, hot and nervous. As soon as I see a side branch, I go back there. Motorcycles also ride here, but less often.
In general, Vietnamese people never leave their motorcycle, they make purchases directly from the motorcycle.
I will not be surprised if they are all in diapers, so as not to get off the horse once again))
Here's the street food
And the gifts of the sea in strange forms
And in traditional too)
I get tired quickly from the noise, bustle, heat and dizzying smells of the market, so I buy what I need and go back to the waterfront, where there is an almost European cafe Buddy Ice Cream. It's cool, good wifi, nice staff and you can leave them to call a taxi.
In the middle of the day I spent peacefully on the beach, in the thickest shade and coolness, and in the evening Ira and I purposefully go to the night market. That's where the exotic is!
When you first get to the Fukuoka night market, your eyes just widen and the same question sounds, and everyone eats it too? )
And some specimens are not similar to food.
Well, at least I didn't go down without explaining myself first.
And they eat it all. In Vietnam, in principle, anything that moves can be eaten. The only thing I haven't heard is that they eat cats. And squirrels, for example, eat. And this miracle is also eaten.
You don't want exotics, there are more familiar foods.
With you, the victim from the aquarium will be caught and roasted on coals.
Be sure to warn in advance not to pepper, otherwise it will be fiery) Knowledgeable people also say that the foil is tastier because there is no taste of smoke.
While they are frying, you immediately sit down at the table and turn on the color.
Shrimp are tastier than smaller ones
These shells are completely rubber. Inside like a small stuffing, but very little.
And this is the most delicious.
I don't know his name. And the surname is probably Ten-legged_cancer)
In the market, in addition to a huge number of seafood delicacies and other delicacies, there are souvenirs, clothes, hats and bags ...But most importantly, you can buy very cheap pearls. Especially if you take a lot at once. The Vietnamese are generally well traded, while wholesalers are active and happy. Just take more! The lighter the pearl, the larger the diameter of the ball planted in the shell and the mother-of-pearl grows much faster, which means that such a pearl is much cheaper.
At the same time, all the properties of pearls are preserved, which you will be happy to show by scratching your pearl mirror. There are white floury stripes on the mirror, it is mother-of-pearl, so the pearls are not glass.
