Based on traveler feedback, it is best to avoid buying perfume and eau de toilette in Nha Trang shops: shoppers question both product quality and authenticity, including at mall outlets.
Nha Trang has two main shopping formats: modern malls and open-air street markets with a lively, chaotic atmosphere typical of Southeast Asian bazaars.
Malls and street markets
Shops that appear to cater to Russian-speaking tourists are often just regular Vietnamese stores. Authentic Russian-run outlets tend to be small container-style stalls tucked away in courtyards rather than on main shopping streets.

Imported goods sold in tourist-oriented shops in Nha Trang are priced similarly to imports back home — expect a significant markup. For local products at local prices, shop at Vietnamese markets rather than tourist stores.
