Saigon Kitsch

Saigon Kitsch is an independent souvenir and gift shop at 43 Duong Ton That Thiep in Ben Nghe ward, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, a short walk from the Municipal Theatre. Run under the Instagram handle @saigonkitsch_shop by Audrey Tran, the shop spreads its stock - magnets, ceramics, candles, tote bags, T-shirts and other Vietnam- and pop-culture-themed novelty items - across three floors, with a pottery selection singled out on the top floor. It's positioned for travelers wanting souvenirs with a design-forward sensibility rather than mass-produced tourist trinkets. The shop is cash-only and does not allow photography or filming inside, and keeps long daily hours (roughly 8am-10pm).
