Trip To The Local Market- Various Location In Mynmar

Been traveling for sometime and seeing many things. Something’s are exciting and some aren't. I believe that the most exciting things are usually found in the market, from vegetables to meat, flowers, yummylious food and in the case of Myanmar absolutely everything even gambling.

At times, when you are lucky you also will see interesting events. This time around I saw two scenes, (i) two lady selling goods fighting with each other and ii) two man and a lady (prostitute), one of the man was trying to take the lady away, but she cried and pleaded to be free. At one point he was angry, he slit his hand into his shirt and pull out a handcuffs. Only then I knew he was undercover police in LONGY.

Apart from that, most amazing people are found at the market. They may at times cheat with the pricing as you are foreigner but they always smile, and be kind and trying to be chatty as they are so curious what in the world is this tourist doing in the market. Many times smiles, signage and calculator is all needed to communicate.

Here are some of the pictures taken from various markets in Myanmar.
