Tucked away along the side of One Nimman, White Market is where Japanese minimalism meets Lanna charm. A highly curated affair, this single row of stalls showcases some of the best handicrafts, ceramics, handmade clothing and delicate jewellery this side of the city – all crafted by Chiang Mai’s creative community. This one is less about haggling and more about discovering that perfect, one-of-a-kind artisanal product. The atmosphere is relaxed and connects into the cobbled shopping and food courtyards of One Nimman.
Time Out tip: Chiang Mai’s creative crowd isn’t known for early starts, so don’t bother showing up at opening hour as half the stalls will still be closed. Instead, aim for late-afternoon when things are in full swing, the sun’s a little softer and the vibe pairs perfectly with a glass of wine in the courtyard.
Friday-Sunday. One Nimman, Nimmanhaemin Road. 3pm-9pm.
