Chamchaa Market

Chamcha Market, nestled in the artistic Llong Him Kao community of San Kamphaeng just outside Chiang Mai, is a whimsical weekend craft market famous for its cozy, bohemian village vibe. Operating on Saturday and Sunday mornings beneath the refreshing shade of giant rain trees (chamcha trees), this intimate community-run market shuns mass-produced souvenirs in favor of high-quality handmade clothing, indigo-dyed textiles, local ceramics, and artisan jewelry. Accompanied by the soothing sounds of live acoustic folk music, visitors can enjoy excellent slow-bar coffee, explore creative workshops with local craftsmen, or pair their morning stroll with a meal at the acclaimed, visually stunning Meena Rice Based Cuisine restaurant located right at the edge of the market grounds.
