A short time later, I left the Bogyoke Aung San Market and crossed the corridor back to the New Bogyoke Aung San Market. As the name suggests, New Bogyoke Aung San Market is the newer of the two markets, and I don't think it existed when I arrived in Yangon eight years ago. And its atmosphere is quite different. While Bogyoke Aung San Market caters to tourists, New Bogyoke Aung San Market caters to locals.
Therefore, when you walk around New Bogyoke Aung San Market, you will not be approached by touts. Even if you have a camera, not many people show interest in it. It was a perfect situation for people-watching. The young woman in the photo did not look at me even when I stopped directly in front of her. It was as if she did not notice me. She was staring at the screen of her phone on her desk. She must have been watching an interesting video.
