For shopping where the locals shop in downtown Yangon try Theingyi Zei Market, which is food and goods market on the Shwedagon Pagoda Road. There are over 1,000 stalls in this market complex selling dried and fresh food, household products, textiles and an assortment of other things normal need to live. This is the largest market in Yangon which serves as the main ‘super store’ for the city spilling out from the market building to informal stores on the surrounding streets.

Another interesting place to visit is Da Nyin Gone Market on Khayae Pin Road. This is a farmer’s market that sits precariously on the edge of the train track causing the train to go slowly through that part of the city. You can reach Da Nyin Gone Market on Yangon’s circular commuter train service. The journey from Yangon Central Station takes about 90 minutes but the reward is a colourful market with the freshest ingredients you will find anywhere in the city at probably the cheapest prices.
