Chiang Mai- Weekend Market

Lesley and I especially enjoyed a few hours of shopping and exploring the weekend market in Chiang Mai.  However, I think its safe to say the market wasn't the highlight of the weekend for Graham and Kingsley.

Graham and Lesley's first Tuk tuk ride!


Walking Street Market,  also known as the Weekend market was an amazing showcase of the art and craftsmanship of Northern Thailand. Many of the stallholders were selling personally made hand crafted items.  I found the quality of the products to be very good compared to other markets we have seen in Asia. 
The goods available were made from an incredible array of materials including: wood, metals, ceramics, fabrics, paper, coconuts and much more.


 
 
After shopping we stopped in at the Olde Bell British Pub for a quick drink before dinner and to do our part in celebrating St. Patricks day.  We then finished the night off with an excellent steak and seafood dinner at Chez Marco a Mediterranean restaurant located in the heart of Chiang Mai.
