If you are in Chiang Rai city on a Saturday then you might want to check out the Chiang Rai Saturday Walking Street Market which sets up along Thanalai Road. This market has a more local flavour than the Chiang Rai Night Bazaar and makes an interesting addition to Chiang Rai’s night markets.
The market sets up along Thanalai Road in the center of town and is within easy walking distance of most city hotels and not far from Chiang Rai’s Night Bazaar. This market only runs on a Saturday with the stalls setting up late afternoon and the market will run through to around 10.30 pm.
