Chiang Mai Day 1

We arrived late on Sunday afternoon. On Sunday nights they turn the main street of Chiang Mai into a walking street market. The whole of the central street is closed and people set up many stalls selling many things from handmade goods to various food and drinks. You can bargain a bit at the markets too. Bought a few things to eat because I wanted to try them. We also came across a stall selling fresh juices and they were really nice so mum bought a lot. Luckily we have a big fridge in the apartment we are staying in.
Vegetable and redbean dumplings 'bao'. Not as nice as the Chinese ones

Beautiful umbrellas for sale

Other handycraft items for sale
Quail eggs

I'm all for trying new things but could not bring myself to try silkworms, crickets or grasshoppers...
10 baht (40 cents Australian) for freshly squeezed juices - the corn and guava ones were the nicest.
One of the many stalls with men cooking chicken wings, and fishballs on sticks
