Chamcha Market: A Holiday-Exclusive Artsy Handicraft Market in Chiang Mai
Chamcha Market is a small weekend-only handicraft market located a bit far from Chiang Mai's city center, about a 20-minute drive from the Old City. Due to its smaller scale, it attracts fewer tourists, making it a comfortable place to stroll around without the crowds.
The market primarily features handmade crafts such as woven items, embroidery, and painted goods. Each stall offers unique and non-repetitive items, mostly with a Thai style and good quality. It's a treasure trove for those who love handmade crafts.
The market is covered with rain shelters and decorated with curtains, giving it a full artsy vibe. If you get tired, you can find a restaurant to rest or grab a cup of coffee. Overall, this market provides a very leisurely experience, allowing you to take your time exploring.

ฉำฉา Chamcha Market
#2024 Travel Review
ฉำฉา Chamcha Market A very interesting handmade market in Chiang Mai, starting from the ancient city and heading east in the small Mon community of Loang Him Kao. There is a weekend market that is about 30 minutes drive from the city center, and there are many various specialty restaurants and cafes around.
Chamcha Market is small, with less than 30 stalls, mainly handmade clothes grocery bags jewelry, the goods are quite exquisite overall, especially if you like dyeing, fabric and ethnic style, can buy. Many stall owners are residents of the village, selling authentic food, but more humanity, cheaper and less tourists.
Although not as big as Jing Jai Market, there are other options that are good. Finally, I would like to remind everyone again ~ this place is only open every Saturday and Sunday!

A Must-Visit for Chiang Mai Travelers! Weekend-Only Daytime Hipster Market
Chamcha Market ตลาดฉำฉา
Weekend-Only Daytime Hipster Market
Due to its slightly remote location from Chiang Mai city center and the fact that most people opt for the larger JingJai Market, this market doesn't attract many tourists.
It's very convenient to get here by car from the Nimman area or the Old City of Chiang Mai, even if you haven't rented a scooter. There are plenty of parking spaces, making it easy for those driving themselves.
The market can be roughly divided into two areas. The first area, which you encounter upon arrival, features a small section of clothes, accessories, and handmade items. I consider this area as an appetizer. As you go further inside, you'll find more handmade goods.
In my opinion, the items sold here are more refined than those at the night markets, and you won't have to worry about seeing the same designs everywhere since they are produced in limited quantities.
The market also has restaurants and coffee shops where you can take a break.

Most of the products sold are handmade products, clothes woven from natural fibers, accessories, home decorations, and collectibles.

The small
The small town of Chiang Mai after the Lantern Festival has restored its former leisure [coffee]. Continue my small literary travel in Chiang Mai~ to the Chamcha market in the suburbs of Chiang Mai. In this small village famous for its blue printing and dyeing fabrics, every Saturday, a warm and lively market, a variety of costumes and handicrafts will be held. Beauty and Thai food come together, even if you dont buy and buy, its a good choice to feel the relaxed atmosphere of Chiang Mai [strong]. Everything in front of me is the reason why I love Chiang Mai! [hip hop]

If you like cute baby things, you must visit ‘Chamcha Market’🇹🇭
When you go to Chiang Mai,
everyone basically goes to the market because it is well-decorated and there are many markets.
Among them, I will introduce you to one of my favorite markets,
Chamcha Market.
The Tuna Market, which opens on weekend mornings,
is a place where handicrafts are lined up.
There are many unique things that you don't usually see at other markets, so it was great for buying souvenirs.
⏰ Weekends 09:00~14:00

Chamcha Market, San Kamphaeng, Chiang Mai.
On holidays, we never stop exploring.
Take a leisurely stroll at Chamcha Market
A small market open every Saturday-Sunday from 9 am to 2 pm
Walk comfortably under the shade of large trees, while shopping for handmade goods, clothes, bags, accessories, and cute crafts.
Enjoy a leisurely walk, listen to chill music, lots of crafts, and plenty of local souvenirs.
Or if you're a foodie, there are many options to choose from, sit and sip hot coffee, it's a warm community that I really love❤️

Catch These 2 Artisan Markets in Chiang Mai
Two places that you might want to dropby when you're visiting #Chiangmai are Cham Cha Market and Jing Jai Market.
These markets are spots where you find artworks and handicraft by local artisans like clothing, leather goods, knittings, indigo dyes, honey, stainless steel crafts, food and many more.
I would say, things sold in both markets are quite similar but in different approaches like some are sold in stalls/booths while some in stores. Personally, I prefer Jingjai Market as it's got a food court that sells local delicacies. 😋

chamcha market cute and fresh rainforest market
This is a relatively niche market, located outside the city, about half an hour's drive from the ancient city, but it is really beautiful. Set in the unique tropical jungle of Southeast Asia, it displays various cultural and creative handmade products, worth a special trip.
🚗🚗
Self-driving:
Definitely drive yourself or rent a car to go there. It's too difficult to hail a taxi there, easy to get there but almost impossible to get one back.
📷📷
Highlights:
There is plenty to eat and drink, you can sit down and experience it slowly, wander around, and there are elementary school students who work hard and study hard playing the piano and singing on site, their voices are warm and listening to them is very comfortable.
💰💰
Price:
The things in this market are generally expensive, and the same things are not worth it at the night market. However, some small cafes and handmade soap shops are very good.
🌿☘
tips:
Opening hours are on weekends, with stalls opening gradually from 9am. It's not too crowded, so it's recommended to come early.
