Night markets, Chiang Mai


Night markets, Chiang Mai
Originally uploaded by JonathanTheMan.
The Chiang Mai night bazaar is the city's biggest tourist attraction, apparently evolving from ancient trading caravans that used to stop here whilst travelling between China and Burma. Not anything remotely ancient about it now, mind - Tania's been gorging herself on the clothes shopping and we've both been enjoying the atmosphere of the frantic selling and negotiating. Oh and we both bought some Teevas for our trek (fakes I assume given the $7AU price tag) - how about that eh, Miss "i-will-never-be-seen-dead-in-those-awful-sandals" in river sandals! Heh heh!
