It is set outdoor with a wide range of small retail businesses and each store has its products displayed in a well-curated presentation. Just like a regular market place, lots of customers at the night market love haggling for prices and asking for discounts, and it is considered normal in the marketplace–if and only if the seller is generous enough to give you some discounts.
