Every city in Thailand has some form of a market where everyone – locals
and tourists alike – can go shopping for whatever they may need. Visiting these markets is an experience in
itself, as you can see everything from a pig’s decapitated head to a range of
fruits and vegetables. On Saturday
nights in some of the cities, the markets grow even bigger than usual. Vendors come from all over the surrounding
region to set up their carts, and they sell pretty much anything you can
imagine. During our weekend in Chiang
Rai, we took some time to wander around the night market, taking pictures of
some of the vendors and stalls that were particularly interesting to us.

From the beautiful handmade crafts to the bugs
being served up to the locals, the night market in Chiang Rai is an
unforgettable cultural experience.
