Nuam Chin Traditional Store

Top choice in Chin State


Handmade, elaborately patterned Chin longyi at this shop across from the CB Bank can sell for a whopping K260,0000 – antique ones for K600,000! That gives some idea of the quality of the goods, which include small bags, filigreed silver belts and less-expensive machine-made longyi, all sold in Yangon's Bogyoke Aung San Market and exported to other countries in the region.
