primary market, Inle lake, Myanmar

In the fresh market section, away from the front row with tourist souvenirs. Here the basics are traded; even with the growing freedoms back then in 2015 there was very limited supply of anything not grown local (besides the lack of money for most people to buy much in the first place).

 

The vendor here was selling chillies, ginger, peanuts, tea leaves, tumeric, black sesame and some other root or fibre that I am not sure about. All essentials of the local cuisine.
