Chiang Mai Shopping

Some of the best shopping in the world can be found right here in Chiang Mai. The north of Thailand has been a centre of arts and crafts for centuries and that aesthetic tradition is still very much alive today.

Thai silk and antiques, handmade furniture and lacquerware and the unique Sa Paper umbrellas are just a few of the myriad of items on display. And with some incredible bargains to be had you might need an extra suitcase just to carry it all.
