Walking Street Chiang Rai

Walking Street Chiang Rai is a lively market located in the heart of the city. The market opens every Saturday from 4 pm until 10 pm and stretches over a kilometer in length. It is a great place to pick up souvenirs like handicrafts, textiles, and ceramics as well as an array of street food. Be sure to try the local delicacies such as sai-oua, a spicy northern Thai sausage, and khao soi, a coconut curry noodle dish. There are also plenty of vendors selling fresh fruits, smoothies, and refreshing coconut water.

In addition to the shopping and food, there is a range of entertainment on offer, including traditional Thai music and dance performances. The market also provides a platform for local artists to showcase their work, with many stalls displaying paintings, sculptures, and other artistic creations. Walking Street Chiang Rai is located near several other landmarks, including the famous Chiang Rai Night Bazaar and the Chiang Rai Clock Tower. The Night Bazaar offers a similar shopping experience but is open every day of the week except Saturday. The Clock Tower is a popular landmark in the city, especially at night when the tower is lit up with colorful lights.
