Bogyoke Aung San Market

an excellent source to buy Burmese handicrafts, such as wood carvings or lacquerware. Beware, however, because some lacquerware is not traditionally-made, and will wear away quickly. The market is also known for its clothing and fabrics. This is a site to see by itself and expect to get approached by many shop owners all around. Highly overpriced! They're surprisingly not as willing to haggle as you might expect. The vendors on the street leading South towards Sule Pagoda have a lot of the same things as inside the market and are much more affordable (great place to get t-shirts especially)
