Is Tanin Market and Siri Wattana Market one and the same? Was there a name change? I just looked at a google map and could not find Tanin.

Tanin is the colloquial name. They're the same place.

Same applies to other markets and lots of temples.

Few local people for example say 'Talad Warorot' / Talad Lamyai for example. It's all Kad Luang.

Yes god damn that kad luang..I still never get the pronunciation right the first time, it always takes me a couple of attempts before the the songtaew understands where I want to go!

Thanks!

Yes, Kad Thanin and Sri Wattana market are the same. As an earlier poster mentioned, Kad Thanin is the spoken/colloquial name for this excellent market.

The mountain range of which Doi Suthep is a part of is called the "Thanin Range" of mountains. Thus the derivation and use of "Thanin".

I like finding out stuff like this. Thanks for the information!

I found this link just recent on Markets.

Does anyone know if there is more around the centre of Chiang Mai.
