Bogyoke Aung San Market

Browse this central Yangon market for crafts, textiles and art inside colonial-era arcades. Its cobbled passages give the shopping visit architectural interest, though individual stalls and holiday opening can vary.

Why go

The market combines a recognizable heritage building with a wide range of small shops. Walk the arcades to compare handicrafts, clothing, jewelry and art, then look down the cobbled inner passages rather than rushing through one row of stalls. The building opened as Scott Market in the colonial period and was renamed after General Aung San after independence.

What to look for

  • Colonial arcades and cobbled inner passages
  • Handicraft and textile stalls
  • Art galleries among the market shops

Useful to know

  • Allow time to browse more than one arcade; stall offerings vary.
  • Check holiday opening before setting out, even when the regular market schedule suggests it is open.
