Chatuchak Market Bangkok

Chatuchak Market is the biggest and oldest market in Bangkok. It's definitely a place you have to see if you have some time to spend in Bangkok. It's a huge open market in the north of the city. The most common way to access it is to use the skytrain because the skytrain station is actually stopping at the market entrance.

Once there you we'll have troubles to find your way, where am I going? what is it in that way? You'll hesitate a bit and then do like most people here just walk randomly in it and stopping each time you're interested in something. 200 000 persons are doing like you every week-end, walking in Chatuchak market looking for shoes, clothes, belts, sunglasses, watches, and all the touristy stuff you can think of. You'll even see some people selling some living animals. This is the sad part of this market: to see 2weeks old dogs, cats. You will also see some birds, mouses, squirrels and even snakes...

We spent around 1hour and a half in this place, found some t-shirts for 100 Baths (2euros), some flip flops for (40 baths, less than 1euros), some fake Ray Ban sunglasses for less than 150Baths (3euros). I didn't buy any and right now I'm kind of regretting it.
