Pavilion Night Bazaar Chiang Mai

The Pavilion Night Bazaar is a bright and bustling vision once it opens up in the evening. It can get pretty crowded but not too difficult to maneuver around them. There are vendors spread out selling trinkets of all sorts. Some are fantastic and others are not the best quality. It ranges from hand painted little elephants to shirts with bright, flashing lights. I found a few things that I loved and brought home to my family. Tourists exploring all around and can get a little crazy.  Plenty of food stalls to try out. Live music playing from different directions. It can get a little overwhelming but definitely cool to check out while you are visiting. Now for my standard comments. Location is crowded and loud. Not horrible to maneuver around but I was happy with exploring around at least once while we were there.

During the reduction in covid curbs during January 2022, the Pavilion area has become surely one of the current hot-spots for enjoyment in Chiang Mai. Covid restrictions are certainly being observed, but there are a lot of happy people meeting there every evening, for a great selection of street food, and some extremely talented music acts.

Can be very crowded... but an impressing variety of food. Live bands playing. Vendors selling stuff from all over North Thailand. Tourists from all over the world. For those staying in the old City of Chiang Mai walking back home from the market after a good dinner is quite pleasant. About 15 minutes to the South Gate.
