Parts of a well-known market in the province of Dong Nai burned to the ground on March 9, fire officials have reported.

It started around 11:30am at the Tan Bien Market in the city of Bien Hoa. When firefighters arrived, they immediately called for backup.

It took two fire crews about 45 minutes to get it under control, but not before it burned seven kiosks all the way to the ground.

It was not the scene venders wanted to see on their way in to work.

As devastating as the fire was, vendors said they were grateful to the firefighters for saving the rest of the market.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
