Thisweekend market  is the best and busiest weekend market in Bangkok.  Here,thousands descend every weekend to trade everything.  Spread over a sizeable  area, the maze of alleys in this sometimes overwhelming market is jam-packed with an astonishing array of goods, divided loosely into specific areas.

Originally a flea market, it has become a creative centre over the past five years, with many young Thai designers taking advantage of the low rent to sell their wares. As it tends to get very busy and hot.   It’s the best to go either in the early morning or late afternoon.

If you need Chatuchak with air-con,visited government-run “Narai Phand” opposite Central World Plaza; here you can find good value handicrafts from all over the country.And you don’t even have to bargain.
