Xishuangbanna Night Market

Dear friends👋, I impulsively bought a ticket to fly to Xishuangbanna✈️ just because of a picture of the Gaozhuang Starlight Night Market! The atmosphere at the Starlight Night Market at night is absolutely amazing👏! Each small tent shines like a star✨. It is said to be the largest night market in Asia. At night, this is the liveliest place in Xishuangbanna🎉. 📍Location: Gaozhuang, Jinghong City, Xishuangbanna Prefecture. 🕔Opening hours: Open all day, but the night market starts at 18:00 and lasts until 1:00-2:00 in the morning. ✅Recommended route: Gaozhuang Xishuangjing ➡ enter from the Golden Pagoda Temple ➡ Red Brick Steps ➡ Main Stall Area of Starlight Night Market ➡ Elephant Statue ➡ BBQ Snack Street ➡ Six Nations Water Market ➡ Stroll along the Mekong River stalls and enjoy the night view ➡ Exit from the west or east side. 🌈Recommended check-in points: 👉The stairs near the Starlight Night Market side of the Golden Pagoda, where you can overlook the bustling scene of the Starlight Night Market. 👉The stalls at the Starlight Night Market, various handicrafts, food, open bars, etc., are all worth photographing. 👉By the water at the water night market, there are inner lake boats passing by, with neon reflections on the water and bustling bar night market, creating a great summer night atmosphere. 👉The top floor of the East Tower of Jingzai Village or the top floor platform of Building 1 in Jingkuang Village is a good place for aerial photography. Since Gaozhuang is a no-fly zone, you can only climb the building to take panoramic shots. 👅Food includes: 🐟Lemongrass Grilled Fish, grilled tilapia with lemongrass, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, very flavorful. 🍨Palu Da, bread soaked in coconut milk, full of tropical flavor. ☕️Lao Iced Coffee, bagged iced coffee, perfect for a hot day. 🐓Dai-style Pounded Chicken Feet, sour and spicy, a very authentic Dai snack. 🌯Vietnamese Spring Rolls, transparent and chewy rice paper rolls with minced fillings, dipped in sour and spicy sauce, very appetizing. 🥥Coconut Jelly, can be added with different fruits, rich coconut flavor, considered a dessert. 🍚Five-color Sticky Rice, a very photogenic mango sticky rice with sweet and soft coconut milk. 🍄Wild Mushroom Hotpot, only available in the rainy season, the mushrooms are wild, fresh, and delicious. 😇About travel photography: The streets are full of "princesses"👸, with impressive makeup, but the photographers' skills vary. If you have a camera and a friend who can take good photos, you might as well buy a beautiful Dai costume, get your makeup done in a store, and take photos yourself. (The clothes in travel photography stores are almost never washed and have a strong smell of sweat. For those who love cleanliness, it's better to buy a new set of clothes. Headpieces can be borrowed).

It's all up to your budget. Transportation is also convenient.

Some attractions may charge a fee. The night market's food can be a bit pricey, so you can take a taxi to the surrounding barbecue markets.

Xishuangbanna Night Markets

Xishuangbanna Night Markets

Gaozhuang night market in downtown Jinhong, Xishuangbanna is one of the most vibrant and amazing market areas I have ever visited. It consists of several streets leading to a central market area that has areas for souvenirs, local crafts, clothes, food and more. If you want to dress up in local clothes to take pictures there are many shops catering for you. The food area near the river market overlooks the river and a music show area. Many stalls selling barbecue, fruit and drinks so you can buy some local food and sit to watch the shows on the river. The prices in the market are generally very affordable and you won't get ripped off. Definitely worth a visit even if you aren't into markets.
