Warorot market, locally called Kad Luang, is Chiang Mai's first shopping centre in what was historically Chinatown and a place to experience real Chiang Mai.  Warorot market is located near the river on Chang Moi and  Witchayanon. It is Chiang Mai's largest permanent  market.

 

The most famous souvenir here is northern style food. Kaeb mu (crispy pig skin), mu yo (traditional Thai pork sausage), and nam phrik num (traditional northern style green chilly paste). A must take back home for family and friends in Bangkok. Behind the market on the small Road are dozens of stalls where hil ltribe people sell various kinds of tribal handicrafts and  towards the riverside is tropical fresh fruits and flowers from the highland farms.

Warowat market is open anytime of the day with strange delights for sale from local foods to pots and pans. Shops on the second floor sell cheap clothing, shoes as well as hill tribe articles and material at a very reasonable price. Closer toward the river is the meat and produce building for a sensory roller coaster ride it is worth the visit for those that like food and exploring.
