The Student Market, Chiang Mai
Take your pick
This is where I come for my Dorothy shorts and belly shirt to go with my Mickey Mouse ears baseball cap…naturally
I actually am kind of wondering if I could rock these…

Hey! I'm Alana and I've spent nearly the past decade living in Chiang Mai, Thailand, working as a writer and photographer. I started Paper Planes as a place to share local insight, special places, and how to travel well through a range of experiences — from hostels to high-end hotels, street meat to multi-course meals.
New places are always calling my name...

I’m visiting Chiang Mai In a few weeks and am so happy to have found your blog..it’s super helpful and is making me even more excited for the trip:)
I’m so glad, Vicky – thanks for reading! Let me know if you have any questions
Hi, nice blog you have here..
lots of insight about the city. all the bloggers out there could only say about the night market, walking street, old city. Nice one! really helpful
Thank you – as for the more well-known markets, the two weekend walking streets are worth checking out, but the Night Bazaar is just awful…I try not to go if I don’t have to!
Hi Alana, I am glad that i came across your blog. I just moved here a few days ago and thanks to you i know where to go tonight! 🙂
Thanks for stopping by, Lix – hope you enjoyed the market!
ya, i remembered these boutique, it’s not far from the gate of university, and there are some restaurants sale hot pot, i have ever tried mam pathai. haha, so tasteful.
I don’t think I’ve ever been to that phad thai place – I’ll need to look for it!
I went to a night market, accidentally stumbled upon it while visiting the zoo and a cat cafe.i believe it was this night market. Love it so much. It was unplanned and we just enjoying our dinner and shopping there.
Those are the best finds! I’ve never actually bought much there – cause I’m usually not in the market for color contact lenses and sparkly shorts – but it’s always interesting to go, and such a different vibe then other markets.
