Chiang Mai Night Bazaar
Best time to visit
Best from 7:00pm to 10:00pm when most stalls and food vendors are open and temperatures are cooler. Weekdays are less crowded than weekends if you prefer more space to browse.
Budget tips
No entry fee, pay per stall; bring cash in small notes as many vendors do not accept cards. Start offers about 30% below the asking price and bundle items to get better deals.

About
त्वरित तथ्य: Neon-lit rows of stalls pulse with the smell of grilled snacks and the sight of intricate textiles, while street musicians add a lively soundtrack to bargain hunting. Crowds swell to include more than a thousand vendors and shoppers on peak evenings, so bring cash, a relaxed schedule, and a readiness to haggle for standout finds.
मुख्य आकर्षण: Walk through alleys lit by strings of yellow bulbs and you can smell sizzling satay and fragrant lemongrass, while dozens of stalls display lacquerware, silk scarves, and hand-carved wood from Baan Tawai. On many nights vendors chant quick bargain rhymes in Thai, sometimes pulling out a scarred price book or offering a 20 baht sample of sticky mango rice to seal a deal, a quirky rhythm that turns haggling into a playful performance.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes, the market covers long pedestrian streets with uneven surfaces.
- Head to side alleys off the main strip for better prices and more unique handicrafts.
- Avoid the 8:00pm to 9:30pm weekend rush if you dislike crowds, or arrive right at opening to beat the busiest hours.
- Look for food stalls with long local queues, those sellers rotate dishes fast and give the freshest northern snacks.
