Review of Red Building Chatuchak, a Vintage Hub

This is another highly recommended spot for vintage lovers, fashion enthusiasts, and photographers. This red building stands out prominently along the main road, right next to the Phahon Yothin / Mo Chit MRT station. It’s only about a 5-minute walk from the station to the building entrance.

Once you step inside, you’ll be pleasantly surprised because the building is air-conditioned and comfortably cool. You can stroll around without getting tired like you would at an outdoor market. The lower floors focus on home decor items such as vintage furniture, chairs, lamps, vases, or retro-style room decorations that are hard to find elsewhere. Clothing prices range from tens to thousands of baht, depending on the condition and rarity of the items. Some shops offer discounts in the afternoon or near closing time. The atmosphere inside the building is nice, with soft background music playing. The sellers are friendly, mostly the shop owners themselves, who have style and are kind. Feel free to chat, ask to take photos, or try on outfits.

If you visit on weekends, it might be a bit crowded. It’s recommended to come early in the morning or late afternoon for a more comfortable walk. Also, bring a large tote bag because you’re sure to pick up some items.
