Markets

I Love Markets: The color, sounds, exotic fruits and veggies. I am fascinated by the people who begin their work day long before daylight and provide the open-air supermarkets of Asia. The local people buy their produce fresh, as they need it, and go to the market at least once and sometimes twice a day. There are large central markets and also local small vendors selling in neighborhoods, or off of the back of bicycles. 
Noodles are always fresh in Hanoi. There is a town 17 Km from City in which everyone makes noodles. That's all they do. The send their fresh noodles to Hanoi 2-3 times a day. Morning noodles are considered too old for evening meals.
