      The cumquat tree is one of the symbols of Tet and in Saigon's District 8, these big old wooden boats make their way from the Mekong Delta packed with them to sell in the city. This market is definitely off the tourist trail and well worth a look. It's located on the canal across from Cholon's Cha Va Bridge.
