Oh yes, I have been to Chiangmai twice this year, and will be going there next month. We were lucky that the International Flower Show and La Krathong events happened simultaneously. We did visit the night market - just next to the Tapae Gate. It is unbelievable - we had to walk for nearly 3-4 kms from one end to the other. Its full of people and lots of bargains. We couldnt help indulging ourselves in getting cheap foot massages along the footpaths. Things are dearth cheap. Lots of arty farty thingies to choose from.
For those who have not experience this before, it has to be a “must go” so that next time, when you talk to your mates about Chiangmai, at least, you can say, “been there and done that.” Finally, its pretty safe at the night market.

I have been various times to the sunday market in chiang mai. it is a wonderful thing to do on sundays…lots of artists sell their things - there is a lot to see and to buy…i personally, prefered the sunday market to the night baazar - things to buy are much nicer, cheaper and special, furthermore the sunday market is more of a local market where lots of thai people are going to buy their things too.
Enjoy it…
