Everything is sold here, from pets to opium pipes and pots to herbal remedies. You'll also find musical instruments, hill-tribe crafts, religious amulets, antiques, flowers, clothes imported from India and Nepal, camping gear and military surplus equipment. The best bargains are household goods like pots and pans, dishes, drinking glasses and second hand books.
