The Chatuchak Weekend Market in Bangkok, Thailand is the largest market in the world. The market is divided into 27 areas with more than 16,000 stalls. It would take several days to visit all of them. over!

The market has everything from household goods, flower and plant decorations, creative design items, pet food supplies, fashion accessories, antiques and cultural relics, gourmet snacks, souvenirs, and even beer and cocktails at the market stalls. Wow! (The souvenirs here are more expensive)

Most of the goods here can be bargained or bought in batches to get a cheaper wholesale price. The goods are also very repetitive. If you like the goods and the price is acceptable, buy them. Otherwise, the market will take up a lot of space. It's too big. Unless you remember the location of your favorite stall, it will be difficult to find the original stall after you leave.

There are many warehouse-type stores in Chatuchak Market, but there are also many street-style shopping malls. There is no shelter when walking on the street, and it is easy to get tanned and sunburned after half a day. Although there are warehouse-type stores, The roof provides shelter, but the temperature is still scary high, so sun protection and hydration are very important. It is recommended to wear light clothes, sunglasses 🕶️ and a sun hat 👒. There are also department stores nearby where you can go in and cool down with the air conditioning. There are also many things to shop in the department stores. !

The weekend market is well worth visiting and treasure hunting. Don’t miss this market when you come to Thailand!
