night bazaar

After-dark shopping venue

A night bazaar is an outdoor market that operates after dark, typically in Southeast Asian cities.

Vendors sell goods from stalls along streets or in dedicated areas, offering everything from street food to clothing to souvenirs.

Night bazaars are both shopping destinations and tourist attractions, combining commerce with entertainment: We wandered through the night bazaar in Chiang Mai.
