Visit Walking Street (Chiang Khan)

Chiang Khan Walking Street is located on Chai Khong Road which, with its wooden houses, is the most emblematic street of Chiang Khan city. At the end of the afternoon, it becomes pedestrianized to accommodate a large night market. Stretching over 1,200 meters, this pedestrian street is home to many food stalls, stalls selling crafts, souvenirs and clothing. Here and there, visitors also come across musicians and human statues which startle pedestrians when they suddenly move.

Located parallel to the majestic Mekong River, Chiang Khan's Walking Street is a living testimony to traditional Thai architecture. Both sides of this charming street are lined with wooden houses, most of which have been transformed into guest houses or souvenir shops. So, Chai Khong Road in Chiang Khan is the meeting point for tourists, and a few locals, in the morning, for the alms offerings to the monks, and in the evening, for tasting Thai Street Food and souvenir shopping.

Chiang Khan Walking Street takes place every evening from 4 p.m or 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. on a large part of Chai Khong Road. It is much busier and hosts many more stalls on weekends and public holidays when many Thais come to visit Chiang Khan.
