Signs at the Original Kuranda Rainforest Market, a folk art and food market located in the rainforest village of Kuranda near Cairns in Far North Queensland, Australia.

Follow the clouds of incense down to these atmospheric village markets. Operating since 1978, they're still the best place to see artists at work and hippies at play. Pick up everything from avocado ice cream to organic lingerie and sample local produce such as honey and fruit wines.
