The market itself is a busy clash of peoples from across the borderlands as well as piles of colourful fruit and some other decidedly chalet alber exotic food items. The good-value Hotel Blue Pine (%2211118; s 300-500, d 500-600) is here, with well-maintained rooms and a mix of common and private bathrooms. Don t mind the caged receptionist, he s quite tame and helpful.
