Hi Steemians!

Hi @dswigle and all Steemians! On this MarketFriday I'm bringing you a market in one of the most impressive Buddhist temples in Chiang Mai, the Wat Phrathat Doi Kham, located in the mountains around the city (Doi = mountain).

The market spreads itself around the temple and everything is sold there, since food to clothes, to flowers. I had never seen a temple with so many flowers' offerings before... It's mesmerizing! Just see for yourself.

Isn't this wonderful?
