One of the largest night markets in Asia | Xishuangbanna Starlight Night Market

I finally arrived at the other side of the Anywhere Door - Xishuangbanna Starlight Night Market, located on the banks of the Lancang River (Mekong River) in the Gaozhuang Xishuang Scenic Area of Jinghong City, Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture, is one of the largest night markets in Asia and also a tourist attraction in the Gaozhuang West resort area. The Starlight Night Market is in an excellent geographical location, adjacent to the Lancang River (Mekong River) and situated at the foot of the Jinghong Golden Pagoda, a building with a unique 'Dai-Thai style'. The unique Theravada Buddhist architecture adds a charming historical and cultural color to the entire night market. The night market mainly features gourmet snacks and various specialty handicrafts, ethnic clothing, gemstone jewelry, music bars, etc. The market is composed of small stall owners, some of whom are locals, while others come from all over the world like tourists. The goods sold in the market are dazzling, not only including popular snacks from all over the country but also attracting tourists with special snacks from Southeast Asian countries and tropical fruits that can almost all be found here, such as Thai milk tea and Lao iced coffee, all of which can be enjoyed without going abroad. Here you can find some popular photo spots, with the Golden Pagoda and the banks of the Lancang River, and dressed in Dai-style clothing, you can take perfect photos. 📍Detailed address: Yunnan Province, Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture, Jinghong City, Gaozhuang Xishuang Scenic Area (near the Golden Pagoda) 🚉Transportation strategy: 1️⃣{Get on at Xishuangbanna Railway Station}, take the Jinghong No. 4 bus to Gaozhuang Xishuang Scenic Spot, and walk for 7 minutes to reach. 2️⃣{Get on at Xishuangbanna Gasa International Airport Station}, take the Jinghong No. 4 bus to Gaozhuang Xishuang Scenic Spot, and walk for 7 minutes to reach. 🕙Business hours: The street is open all day Night market 18:00 - 23:30 🎫Ticket: Free admission (reservation required on holidays)
