While it may possibly be a little overwhelming and chaotic for rookies especially with the sweltering heat and crowds, one cannot say their trip to Bangkok is complete unless they have braved and conquered these insane yet lively markets.

Not only do these markets carry various trinkets and knick-knacks for the home, shoppers will stumble across just about anything from vinyl records to handmade crafts, including clothing, accessories, plants, furniture, art, kitchen odds and ends, and so much more.

The epitome of outdoor markets in Bangkok is none other than the Chatuchak Weekend Market which is home to over 15,000 stalls divided into 27 categories welcoming over 200,000 visitors every weekend. Rest assured that there is indeed a method to all this madness.

Other popular markets include Talat Rot Fai, the Neon Night Market and the Artbox Night Market. Before you go forth, remember to stay hydrated at all times and refuel the tummy whenever necessary – there will not be a shortage of street food everywhere.
