The Night Bazaar is a huge market covering a long outdoor stretch of Chang Khlan Road between Tha Phae Road and Si Donchai Road, with the centre of the maelstrom in the Chiang Mai Night Bazaar Building, three storeys of shopping under a Thai temple-style roof. The bazaar area straddles both sides of the street, with a gauntlet of street vendors along both pavements at night. It opens at about 5PM, but many vendors open about 7PM until 11PM or so. It's not just a place to shop, but possibly Chiang Mai's largest tourist attraction, with products from Northern Thailand and neighbouring countries, especially those associated with Thailand's hill tribes - but take all claims with a pinch of salt and bargain hard for good prices.
