Luang Prabang | The most beautiful night market in the tranquil sunset

The most beautiful night market in the tranquil sunset. The Luang Prabang night market is located on the main road in front of the Royal Palace. During the day, it is very peaceful, but as evening approaches, vendors set up their stalls and tourists come in an endless stream, accompanied by the glow of the sunset, as if it were a fairyland on earth. 🌈Highlights: The Luang Prabang night market is known as "the quietest night market in the world". Local regulations stipulate that stall operators cannot solicit customers or promote products; they must wait quietly for tourists to ask for prices before they can state them. Moreover, many tourists are not fluent in Lao or English, so they have to negotiate silently using calculators. There are said to be nearly a thousand stalls in the long night market, selling distinctive products such as mulberry paper lanterns, hand-painted works with a strong local flavor, colorful textiles and clothing, and of course, the ubiquitous fridge magnets . Vendors here tend to start with high asking prices, so it's common to bargain down to about 30% of the initial price. There is a serious homogenization of products in the night market, so don't be afraid to bargain hard. By visiting several stalls, you're likely to find something suitable. If you're worried about being taken advantage of or aren't good at bargaining, you can target the aunties from China, who are skilled at it. Wait for them to finish bargaining and then pick up the deals they've found . 📍Detailed address: Hmong Night Market 🚗Address & Transportation: On the main road between the Royal Palace and Phousi Mountain. 🎫Ticket Information: Free, there's no admission fee for the night market. ✨Tips: The local currency policy is quite chaotic; payments can be made in US dollars, Chinese yuan, Thai baht, and Lao kip. Make sure to calculate the exchange rate carefully to avoid being shortchanged .
