Bangkok: Chatuchak Weekend Market.



Hey guys, who is crazy of shopping and who is crazy of foods... Chatuchak or Jatujak Weekend Market at Bangkok is one of the few we truly enjoyed so much that we would not hesitate to return again. It has thoudands of stalls selling a wide range of products including cheap and delicious local foods. The atmosphere and setup are very similar to our pasar malam but it is a whole lot bigger, easily ten to twenty times the size of typical pasar malam. But first, you should know that Chatuchak Weekend Market is only open on Saturday and Sunday 9am to 6pm just like the name says. So plan your trip accordingly if you wish to include Chatuchak Weekend Market into your list of places to visit.



Please remember get Chatuchak Weekend Market map along before entry. If not you will lost and confusing!! By the way, PLEASE PROTECT YOUR WALLETS AND BAG ALONG.



Not only the vendors are not pushy, you will also be pleased to know that the whole market is a smoking free area!If you have a nice budget for shopping I am pretty sure you will have a good time here. Why? Because even a non-shopper like me who did not allocate any money for the visit bought quite a number of items- mainly artifacts, handicrafts and of course lots of food and drinks.
