Market Shopping 🛍️

Wua Lai Walking Street - Saturday Night Market Chiangmai

@bryt_

This is where you want to go on Saturday evening when you are looking for a market. This market has lots of different things from food to handmade art. This market is not as large as the Sunday night market so if you would like a smaller market crowd, this is a great one.

If you love art markets and hand on diy this is the place for you. Open everyday except Mondays (although sometimes open Mondays.) Lots to see and do in a lovely community space.

ฉำฉา Chamcha Market

@bryt_

This is a super cutesy art market. Lots of little shops, full of random things from trinkets to food items. Lots of places to stop and take a selfie. Good place to pick up souvenirs. They even have a pizza restaurant in a bus. Very outside of the box thinking type place. Artists will love it.

This weekend market is also outside of the old city but if you are an artist its a must visit. Shop around an art village on Saturday or Sunday morning.

One Nimman

@bryt_

This is a European feeling inside and outdoor mall. The shops are okay at anytime but its best to visit the square while its hosting an event. They have Night Ground Flea markets every Monday & Tuesday 4-10 as well as White Market farmer markets Friday through Sunday 3-10.

Secondhand Shops 🛍️

Clothes Dumpster

@bryt_

If you are a deal seeker and love the thrill of the hunt for that amazing deal, this is your place. I found brand name jeans from around the world for 3 pairs for 100b. Shorts were 7 for 100b. Everything is organized by article of clothing not by size. I didn’t find many tank tops. ✨It does get hot in there. I recommend to go earlier in the day. ✨Grab didnt take me to the exact location but near. I just walked a few minutes until I saw an open warehouse type building with a lot of clothes.

Nonghoi Second Hand - ร้านมือสองหนองหอย

@bryt_

A thrifter and vintage seeker’s delight. Lots of household items from all the years before us. I wasnt looking for furniture but found some really lovely pieces here. Also a lot of vintage glasswear and ceramics. I was interested in the old school perfume bottles and jars. Overall a fun place to get lost in time for a little bit. ✨ It’s mostly household and trinkets. I wouldn’t go looking for clothes. ✨It is dusty!
