The
Advanced Thumingalar Market in PyinOoLwin was constructed under the guidance of
the Head of State to ensure the emergence of a new, modern market in line with
the town’s growing population density and increasing number of visitors. The
project aims to support urban development in accordance with modern systems and
to establish an RC-standard advanced market building that meets international
standards. It is also intended to enable the centralized trading of locally
produced basic commodities in one place and to improve the flow of goods
between hilly and plain areas. The new market is a six-storey RC-type building.
To facilitate convenient access for shoppers, it has been systematically
equipped with 12 escalators, six elevators, a solar-powered electricity supply
system, security systems, fire protection systems, and disaster-resilient
features. The advanced Thumingalar Market is branded shops, a promotion area,
cart shop areas, bank areas, a supermarket, mini-marts, retail stores, clothing
and cosmetics shops, grocery stores, restaurants, a playground, cinemas, and
systematically arranged parking facilities.
