Sunday Walking Street back in full swing!

By | Mon 13 Jun 2022

Welcome back to the Sunday Street Market, one of the most iconic scenes from Chiang Mai.

The Sunday Street Market is back and better than ever! The atmosphere last night had infectious energy from both the local and tourist shoppers. Getting in requires a mask and a temperature scan, but after that, you are free to enjoy all that Rachadamnoen has to offer from the numerous stands selling all sorts of fun items from handmade glass animal statues to beautiful postcards for just 10 baht. When wandering into the courtyard of Wat Phan On, be prepared to be ambushed by the incredible smells of local food vendors. Take a look at the photos below for just a few of the scenes from this Sunday’s Street Market.
