A trip wouldn't be complete without shopping, right?! I've always wanted to go to Bangkok's 35-acre shopping heaven, Chatuchak Market! 😍 From local handicrafts to clothes, accessories, house decorations, name it they've got it. Not only you can shop til you drop, there are local food stalls stationed everywhere. Easier to replenish your energy for another round of shopping! 🤪

Not a book café, but I'm sure you won't have much trouble finding both books and coffee (or some famous Thai iced tea) at one of the 10'000 stalls of the world's largest weekend market 😎.
Shopping is one of the best to do especially for a girls. That’s why I do recommend this place, since I’d ever came here before and can bought a lot of thing and super cheap; even u can be a reseller again to sell to your own country. U can find anything here, cheap clothes, food and some of souvenirs.. The quality also not bad tho.. so, why not ? 🤗
"Litte Patricia wants to eat, an extraodinary treat, authentic Thai food on the street. Where to be, where could she be? She said -- I shall eat and shop, at CHATUCHAK MARKET, Where is the map? I shall go and MARK IT!" What is travelling without food experience? Every country boasts a cultural expression through food. Despite of differences, food unites people from all over the world. Food venture is one of the things that bridge cultures. Similarities and differences of food staples and palates make it more compelling for tourists to recognize food representations. Moreover, Thailand is branded to be a melting pot for food gastronomy. Their cuisine is certainly a treat to the taste buds as it is a blend of 4s: sweet, spicy, sour, and salty. For that, people will definitely enjoy eating the local gastronomy of Thailand after they finish their Bangkok day trips and temple runs. For me, the best place to go for a trEAT in Bangkok is to visit CHATUCHAK MARKET. It is a place to spot for food that won't let any tourist go home with a sad tummy. Although the market may be overcrowded at times, it does not literally impose a bad news. Because you know what they say, "When a place has long lines for food, the food is definitely worth a try." Aside from the good number of food choices, Chatuchak Market brings cultural food experience to people. It is known how each food staple tells a story of history, social idenity, and cultural food consumption. We get to try what every Thai experience in their taste receptors and palates. Also, we get to explore and understand deeper why Thai cuisine is known as one of Asia's melting pot country. Thus, the market becomes a home for people who loves to eat and witness the culture of Thai gastronomy. But really, what is more to Chatuchak market? The market is also known for shopping hauls. Tourists consider visiting the place because it is like hitting two birds with one stone: eating and shopping. Just like any typical tourists, cheap finds and bargains are an important thing. Chatuchak market becomes the go-to place for shoppers who are enthusiastic about grabbing home their most favorite souvenirs at a lower price. From clothes to bags, fashionable hats, textiles, figurines, and accessories -- whatever it may be, name it and Chatuchak has it!!! CHATUCHAK MARKET is completely going to be your favorite food guide and one-stop shop. So, to anyone who wants to save their time? Maximize your stay at Bangkok by marking CHATUCHAK MARKET on your itinerary. Say bye-bye to limited time, say hi-hi to buy-buys!!!!
I could sleep at this place never wanting it to end! Can’t wait to actually go on a shopping spree in a street market and gab everything I want from souvenirs to food.
A local market slightly on the outskirts of Bangkok city that has become an icon and must visit for anyone visiting Bangkok
I love bargaining so I'll probably love this weekend market and it offers everything under the sun, Its paradise to those who enjoy bargaining for that last great price.
Venturing out during the day to explore Chatuchak Market. Sipping on fresh coconut juice from the friendly street vendor and buying souvenirs for loved ones. A day well spent
Souvenirs, gift for family & friends andddd Bangkoks local street food!!! 😍😍😍
Being one of the largest market in Asia, this is one attraction visitors to Bangkok on the weekends surely cannot miss out on. I’m a big fan of market with wide range of products and stuffs to offer. That is why this Chatuchak Market is one of the must-visit place for me. Conquering Chatuchak Market probably will complete my dream Bangkok tour 🖤
Of course.. in anywhere in the world you visit, buying souvenirs is a must have! Chatuchak market is the best place to go when you want to buy their famous and colorful Thai handicrafts! I love how thai bags are being made! ❤️ I wanna have them too 😭😍
A great place to buy souvenirs. The market is huge so come prepared with a map. Easy to access via Mo Chit BTS station.

Mercato Centrale (Firenze)
Most people bring clothes, shoes, bags, and fashion back from Italy. Dom and I bring back food. Shameless amounts of it. Truffles, dried pastas, olive oils and aged balsamic vinegar... and pack them in boxes 📦 and newspaper 🗞 courtesy of the hotel concierge. Overweight luggage is a real concern with all that balsamic vinegar and olive oils 😅 If you head over, go on an empty stomach. There’s plenty to eat, lots of little stalls, and your mouth will be kept pretty busy with the constant gobbling.
Stanley Market
One of the biggest outdoor markets in Hong Kong, Stanley Market is as much of a tourist attraction as it is a place to quench your hoarding habits. You can find almost anything here—from the essentials to the frivolous to the insane. (Triple-fused pentaminx 17x17x17 Rubik’s cubes, anyone?) Not everything is second-hand, but some items are recycled while some are handmade. The prices start off low, so there’s no need to play limbo. The area is a hotspot for pickpockets, though, so be careful!
Tongin Market
One of the city's longest-standing traditional markets. You can get a dosirak (lunchbox) then just fill it up with food from the different stalls, paid using old brass coins. Everything was delicious.
