Around the year B.E. 2000, Warorot Market was constructed, and its name derives from the name of the king ruler who ruled Chiang Mai at the time. It may be argued that this market has existed for more than a century. Initially, the market was said to be dominated by a business associated with the Na Chiang Mai bloodline, which was descended from the Chiang Mai ruler. However, this occurred during the South-East War. To make it better and more contemporary, several descendants have sold their interests to Anusarn Chiang Mai Company Limited.
