Hue is known for producing the finest conical hats in Vietnam. The city's speciality is "poem hats", which, when held up to the light, reveal shadowy scenes of daily life

Between the new market and the old market (the kiosques nowadays) there were French and Indian shops (they have been repaired till now ). After being abroad, the famous architect Ngo Viet Thu (who had won the Roman championship about architecture) gave some ideas about building some stairs going to make it separate.In 1999 , on the occastion of the one hundred years of finding out Dalat, the market was started to renovate. The whole area of the market is 22.000m2 with 1469 business households. There is also an area for hotels (not built yet) which in 8556m2. There are different types of products which are sold here, mainly on the grround floors and first floor. On the ground floor , there 93 stores selling specialities of Dalat . The most noticeable place is the flower place with 28 stores at the front of the market and some of t hese stores are 40 years old. On Lunar New Year Day flowers are sold everywhere and flowers bloom up. This makes the market brilliant
