What are the highlights of Chaweng Walking Street?
The countless food stands sell grilled chicken and squid, boiled chicken, sticky rice, and fruit smoothies. Everyone seems to be in good humour, though expect some intense touting on Chaweng’s main shopping street.
As you stroll from stall to stall, you’ll hear different music every few metres. As if that’s not confusing enough, there are sometimes live performers up on the central stage. No one seems to care. In keeping with the light-hearted atmosphere here, try to smile when you bargain and have a devil-may-care attitude; you’ll be surprised at how well it works in securing a bargain.
