Fodor's Expert Review Walking Streets

Chiang Mai has two so-called walking streets, closed off to traffic to make way for weekly markets. One is held on Wualai Road (the "silver street") on Saturday evening. The other, much larger one, takes up the whole of Ratchadamnoen Road and surrounding streets on Sunday evenings. Although the Night Bazaar sells good food and plenty of souvenirs, you will usually find more local handicrafts at the walking street markets.
