Warorot Market (Kad Luang)

The place to go to get the real Chian Mai vibe. Things are cheap, they have food and smiles and stuff and clothes. Right next to the Ping River with a parking garage. It's just amazing to go and check out.

This market is amazing for souvenirs! You can find a huge variety of clothes, desserts, and savory food. The best part You can even ship large purchases back home with Thailand Post.

The market had grown steadily since Covid-19. Back in 2017-20 it was a one level market but now there's food and other stalls available. Mostly clothes, bags and children's toys. Worth a stroll around for a couple of hours. I bought the brown bag here 120 baht in 2017, the black (identical) one in 2025 for 300 baht.

Local market that caters more to locals and definitely an enjoyable stop for visitors. The food court inside the building has many seats. You can order from each vendor or grab a seat and have the runners place your food order (from the stack of menus at the table). Once your food arrives, pay for it with cash. The runners will also help with change. This market is large and covers a lot of territory. It’s a very comprehensive market. There are many clothes and accessory vendors, where one can find beautiful, creative, artsy pieces or everyday wear from socks, under clothes, and any items for all family members. Shopping for fruits, vegi, snacks. They got it too. Tools, school supplies? Got that too. So many things. My favorite place was a small papaya salad vendor. I can eat their food everyday.

Honestly did my best shopping there. Much better than anything in bangkok, lower prices here, more variety of products, gigantic market. It feels never ending! Tip from a pro traveler to Thailand: buy all the things you want and go to the Thai post office and send them back to your home country. So you don’t need to buy another suitcase or occupy space!

Won't be open at night; to enjoy, one must come wile the sun is up. It is a huge market that resembles an old shopping complex. Unlike an ordinary Thai market, it is a four-story building with an inoperative escalator (interesting!), which is now a staircase connecting the ground floor and the 2nd. Those who seek to buy dried spices, BEWARE; check the spice bag or container well because it may include a lot of tiny insects within. I bought a bag of cumin seeds and ended up throwing it away because 30% of the seeds were actually insects... But the people selling stuff there are nice. All in all, I like this market and will visit again and again.

An indoor traditional market for fresh produce and daily necessities. Dried fruits and traditional snacks are also available. A nice place for shopping of inexpensive souvenirs. Elephant pants and clothing are at very reasonable price. The market was closed temporarily for business during flooding last month. Recovery quickly. But the marks of floodwaters could still be seen.

This is a wholesale market, most of the perishable food items sold at night markets are wholesale here. Across the "road" the clothes markets are where the apparel for the night markets is wholesale. The food available in the lower section of the market is excellent and local price. At the time of writing 50/60 baht main course.
