[edit] About

Chatuchak Weekend Market is a perfect place for antique bargain hunters, although whatever you buy here these days is probably no longer the best deal in Bangkok. Still, the market is a true shoppers paradise, comprising over 8,000 stalls selling incredible ancient pieces. Available here are practically everything, from designer clothes and fashion accessories to antiques to silks and ceramics, spread over a 112,000 square meter space. With more than 15,000 shops and stalls on the premise, this weekend market receives daily over 200,000 visitors drawn in by the huge inventory of antiques and household accessories available. The choice of goods is spoiling and includes Moroccan lamps, wooden chests, colourful gems, marvellous handicrafts, religious artefacts, amazing objets d'art, unusual ceramics, porcelain, dolls, Chinese wares, vintage books and clothing, as well as other Asian collectibles, some dating back as far as the 19th century.
