Chatuchak Market


Shopping
Sat Sep 23 6:00am - Sat Sep 23 11:00pm
Notes
Only open on weekends (Saturdays and Sundays), this is the biggest market in Thailand and probably the world. You can buy just about anything here, from incense to insects. The market is huge, covering many blocks. There are food stalls in case you get hungry.

You can get here by taking the SkyTrain to Mo Chit station. You won't be alone, so just follow the crowd to the market.
