Isaan, the breadbasket of Thailand
Indochina market in Mukdahan
As most Thai cities along the Mekong, Mukdahan has an Indochina Market placed along its promenade, in front of the pier in this case. Unlike the other towns, here the market is enriched by the merchandise crossing the border in both ways.
Thai fabrics (like pha khao ma), khit triangular pillows, hand-woven matmee and prae wa silk, Laotian coffee, Vietnamese souvenirs, Chinese, mass produced household products and Cambodian scarves rule here; rare are the Western products spotted here.
