Lonely Planet review

A more chilled out shopping experience than the Night Bazaar, Chiang Mai's Sunday Walking Street has become more and more popular with Thais and tourists alike. Stretching from Tha Pae Gate square and along most of Th Ratchadamnoen, the area is blocked off to traffic from late Sunday afternoon to midnight.

The whole of Th Ratchadamnoen, and the wats along its length, are filled with colourful stalls selling wares ranging from hill-tribe crafts and blinking lights, to wooden bangles and tasty morsels. There is a great atmosphere helped along by buskers playing down the street. When tired of the shopping, it is fun to sit at one of the bars or restaurants along the strip and watch the hubbub go by.
