Visiting the Pua Farmers Market in Pua

Pua Farmers Market in Pua, North Thailand

The Pua Farmers Market, in Pua of course, is an early morning market. It is where the people from the mountains sell their vegetables and herbs and that starts at 5:00 o'clock in the morning. Most of the market is food like vegetable, meat, herbs, eggs but also ready made food. A bit later in the morning some other shops will open selling things like cloths and shoes. And around the market are many small shop-houses selling whatever you might ever need ranging from fishing gear to bicycles.

In the evening there is in front of this market a kind of Food Court where you can buy & eat food. This starts at about 17:00. And there are tables & chairs to enjoy your food. Following are some more photos, click on the photo to enlarge. If you like to experience the slow life & culture of Pua in Nan province, then come and stay a few days at Non Na Pua Homestay (only 3 km from this market). If you are planing your holiday in Northeast or North Thailand and need some help or advice, then contact me at The Little Elephant in Thailand.
