Chiang Mai Night Bazar

Like every night bazaar in Thailand or maybe even Asia, it's full of little stands selling almost everything from souvenirs, handicraft, clothing and fakes.
Strategy we agreed on was to take a first tour to assess the landscape i.e. see what's being sold. Then choose what we wanted and start bargaining.
It was good to some extent to renew with the bargaining tricks from China. Although it's not that easy to get the prices down in Thailand. At least not as low as we would like.
I bought some silk scarves, earrings in silver from one of the local tribes and a painting for the house. As usual I managed to buy something almost impossible to bring back but I couldn't resist.
