Wolfgang's photos with the keyword: Rim Moei Market

The vibrant Burmese Rim Moei Market at the border to Burma represents an amazing cultural mix. There are Indo-burmese textiles, food and teak; as well as Karen, Mon, Hmong and other Burmese minority shops of all kinds. Turtles, eels and frogs all available at food stalls (mostly these are live) while pork, chicken, beef and lamb are also sold. There are numerous gem and jade shops (not for amateurs). You had best be able to tell the difference between real and fake gems if you plan to buy. And some vendors show your a photo album with pictures of all kinds of weapons. Interested buyers soon get delivered every thing they like to need, also e.g. machine gun.
