There are many markets in Chiang Mai where ranging from products to clothing and other accessories. Moreover, some markets are not stationary, but appear on fenced in specifically for this street only for certain days, for example, Saturdays or Sundays. In the markets you can Meet Thai Handmade, which is brought from all over the province. There are quite amusing things.
Prices in Chiang Mai on the markets are quite normal, especially on those who are on weekends. But in southern Thailand, it seemed to me that on Wallking Street on Samui and in Ao Nang everything was also or more expensive than if I took it somewhere else nearby. True i’m in mainly on food compared. After all, every market is first of all. Thai fast food
