A fire raged a major market in Myanmar's second largest city of Mandalay Monday morning, witnesses said.

The fire started at about 8 a.m.(local time) and burned down the business-booming five-storey Yadanabon Market in downtown Mandalay near the Mandalay Railway Stations.

So far, the fire has already lasted for about three hours, local residents said, adding that most of the shops in the market are owned by local Chinese residents.
