3 Best Places to Shop in Chiang Mai, Thailand
Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Chiang Mai right now.
The delightful surprise about shopping in Chiang Mai is that you don't have to part with much of your hard-earned money—even the most elaborately crafted silver, for instance, costs a fraction of what you'd expect to pay at home. Fine jewelry priced at just above the current market value, as well as pewter, leather, and silk, are on display all around the city. The most popular buys are vibrant hill tribe textiles and products made from textiles, such as handbags and shoes; handicrafts, from handmade paper to pretty parasols; hippy clothes; knockoff bags; and accessories and jewelry.
Royal Orchid Collection
This shop specializes in jewelry featuring all sorts of flowers, including orchids and roses, set in gold and silver. The Siam Royal Orchid booth at Northern Village has a spectacular selection.
Shiraz
This small shop specializes in loose gemstones and made-to-order rings of all types (especially engagement rings), and has an unchallenged reputation for reliability, expertise, and good value. If the owner, Mr. Nasser, is behind the counter or at work in his office workroom, you're in luck—you won't find a more knowledgeable gems expert in Chiang Mai.
