Actually, this is a bakery that brought its bread to the market, but there's a great variety! The market is small, and you can finish browsing in half an hour! 4️⃣Baan Kang Wat 'Chiang Mai' Opening hours: Open every day except Monday Features: Mostly consists of handicraft shops and workshops of niche artists, the buildings in the village are also quite original. I absolutely love this shiny shell craft shop🎉. 5️⃣Tha Phae Gate Night Market 'Chiang Mai' Opening hours: Saturday and Sunday 16:00-22:00 Features: The market stretches across the entire old city, mainly offering various distinctive snacks and Thai clothing, with very convenient transportation. 7️⃣Chiang Mai University Night Market 'Chiang Mai' Opening hours: 17:00-22:00 Features: Perhaps because it's near Chiang Mai University, it's much cheaper than other markets.

There are also super many snacks here, you must try the salt-grilled fish, the key is it's close to the center of Bangkok, only 20 kilometers away. A 30-minute taxi ride. BTS to Bang wa station 9️⃣ICONSIAM Siam Indoor Floating Market 'Bangkok' I think for sisters who want to explore marketplaces during the day, this is a great place to come! It has air conditioning! This isn't a real floating market, it's an indoor food market with a water theme. I absolutely adore the big lamb bone hotpot here, it's a bit more expensive than other markets, after all, it's in a central shopping mall, and it has air conditioning. And you must try the AFTER YOU smoothie!

I wish there were more markets like this, they are so photogenic!

Although the market is not big, it's enjoyable and great for taking pictures, with all kinds of snacks, fruits, as well as clothes and accessories. There are also singer performances. I really like this kind of market, you can go and have fun from 8 in the morning until 2 in the afternoon.

Take my advice: There's no need to visit a certain mall in Chiang Mai

🌟 The overall cost of living in Chiang Mai is much lower than in Bangkok. When you come here to play, besides exploring shops and enjoying the food, the most important thing, of course, is to shop till you drop! I've compiled a list of shopping districts and markets in Chiang Mai worth visiting, and of course, I've also identified some to avoid. These are all based on my personal experience and are just for reference! 🛍️ Shopping Centers: There are only two major shopping centers in Chiang Mai. One is the Maya Shopping Center near the Nimmanhaemin Road area, and the other is the Central Festival Chiang Mai, which is near the Yee Peng Market to the northeast of the old city. I suggest just going to Central, as it's very large and has many local clothing brands. I must say, Thai clothing is really vibrant! There's also a food court on the basement level with so many snacks you can't count them all! I'll give specific food recommendations in the next issue. MAYA Shopping Center, I think, is a dud💣. The mall is not big at all, and the brands are few and far between, similar to a shopping center in a small county in China. ⭕️ Shopping Districts: Although MAYA isn't great for shopping, the nearby Nimmanhaemin Road is definitely worth a visit. Nimmanhaemin Road Soi 1 is a plaza with an art park atmosphere, which also has many local brands and craft shops, as well as some trendy brands. If you're tired from walking, there's a 'lets relax' massage shop nearby, a famous chain brand. In the evening, there will be a night market in the plaza, and there's also a Michelin-recommended restaurant and many popular coffee shops. It can be said that everything Chiang Mai has to offer is here, and it's a place every visitor should go to. 🌴 Markets: I visited 4 markets this time. · Nimmanhaemin Road Soi 1 Market: Standard fare, not very big. If you're not already in the area, I wouldn't recommend making a special trip. · Yee Peng Market: Only open during the day on weekends. Even when it's not market day, it's still worth visiting for a photo op, as it's really picturesque. Everyone goes there not really to shop, but to take pictures... Accordingly, the market itself isn't that attractive. · Sunday Night Market: I chose the Sunday Night Market over the Saturday Night Market because the Sunday Night Market is near Tha Phae Gate, which is very convenient, and it's really super super super big, too big to finish exploring! The Saturday Night Market is in the south of the city, which was too far from where we stayed, so we didn't go. By the way, besides the night market itself, remember to visit the craft shops on both sides of the road. There are many handmade pots, pans, and ornaments that are really exquisite! I bought a lot to take home, they make great gifts and are very affordable to display in the house. · Chang Khlan Road Night Market: If you're staying near Tha Phae Gate, you can go for a stroll in the evening. It's mostly food and drink, and the novelty is that there are live band performances. Other than that, there's not much else. · The last regret is not going to JJ Market, which is said to be a gathering place for artistic products, and the recently popular Goods Goods is also there. Be sure to pay attention to the opening hours when you go! It basically ends in the afternoon, and I missed it because I overslept... 🌟 That's all for the shopping part, next time I'll recommend some local food that I found quite good!

Did you go shopping in Chiang Mai today?

I specifically chose to go to Chiang Mai on the weekend. I spent the whole day shopping on Sunday. I went to the limited weekend market, went to Nimman Road No.1, and bought the most popular basket bag in Thailand. So, did you go shopping in Chiang Mai? 1️⃣ Coconut Market Saturday, Sunday 8:00-15:00 The market is not very big, it's all in the coconut grove, and there are resident singers. The green stream and bamboo bridge are very distinctive and beautiful for photos. 2️⃣ JJ Market Saturday, Sunday 6:00-14:00 The most popular market, very artistic, generally high prices. The farmers market occupies half, there are many tourists eating at noon, the coffee is good. goodsgoods is here, but in the end, I bought two unknown hand-woven bags at the stall. 3️⃣ One Nimman Daily 11:00-22:00 It's a bit like a domestic cultural and creative park, the architecture itself is very beautiful. There are many small shops around that are great for shopping, and the photos are also beautiful. There are also many restaurants, coffee shops, and massage shops on Nimman Road. You can rest here in the afternoon, get a foot massage, and then go to the night market! 4️⃣ Sunday Night Market Sunday 18:00-22:00 The 2-kilometer street from Tha Pae Gate to Pasin Temple becomes a market at night. There are food, drinks, handmade items, clothing, everything, the prices are cheap, you can find a lot of fun little things. 🐘Shopping route: Coconut Market-JJ Market-Nimman Road No.1-Tha Pae Gate Sunday Night Market

Chiang Mai Family Trip | The market in the coconut grove 🌴, the place that will amaze you at first sight

A must-visit Yelin Market is more favored by babies than JJ Market. Mom likes the good mood brought by Jiang Jia's handicrafts. Baby likes to run on the narrow path in the coconut grove, creating opportunities to fall into the river. Coconut groves may not have the delicacy of JiangJia, but they have unique scenery that cannot be replicated. The fresh and natural atmosphere makes every photo 📷 look good. How could moms miss such an artistic place? 🕙Business hours: Saturday and Sunday 08:00-16:00 📍Detailed address: Ba Pao Flea Market 📝Attention tips: ✔️This place is only suitable for taking photos and leisure. 2-3 hours is enough. The handicrafts are not worth buying. ✔️Tension at the grass shed by the river. It is recommended for moms to come after lunch, find a small grass shed (a good element for taking photos), and have afternoon tea. ‼️Green floating ferns look good in photos, but the sanitation conditions are average. The V-shaped water channel often causes tourists to fall into the water while taking pictures, with a depth up to the knee. Be sure to take good care of your children.
