I am in Chiang Mai, the largest city in northern Thailand. The city is famous for its night market. I've been there many a time, but decided to take a few photos for you this time. Unfortunately, most of the photos were too blurry to post (they were taken after dark). The market has food stalls, pharmacies, coffee shops, artists, travel agencies, banks and vendors that sell clothing, watches, jewelry, linens, toys and souvenirs. Bargaining is allowed, and since I've lived in Asia for so long, I've become pretty good at that.
Brightly colored good are very popular.
Buddhist relics for sale.
You can ride elephants and gawk at long-necked Karen tribe people all in the same day, according to this travel agency advertisement. Uh, come to think of it, I may have been on that tour once. Sounds awfully familiar.
Many fine artists draw based on photographs. This man has a photograph in his left hand that he refers to as he does his work.
The night market -- the place to see and be seen in Chiang Mai.
