The neon market

Neon Night Market

District / Neighbourhood: Ratchathvi

The markets of Thailand are perhaps the hallmark most associated with the Kingdom of Siam, after its magical bathing beaches. Indeed, during your visit to Thailand you will find thousands of different and different markets in which items of all kinds and species, from clothing and accessories to animals.

Although, due to the goods that often repeat themselves, there is often a feeling that the only difference between the different markets is the city where the market takes place. If you also share the feeling, you will be happy to hear that the neon market in Bangkok is a special and different market in the local landscape and as such it attracts thousands of tourists every day.

The neon market is considered one of the newest markets in the capital city of Thailand. It opened in 2016 and within a short period of time became a household name and today it is known for the excellent atmosphere that surrounds it, which is possible thanks to its attractive location in the city alongside a variety of activities that are held there such as live music and street performances.

Among the stalls you can find during your visit to the neon market are clothing and accessories stalls, shoe stalls, souvenir stalls and peach bags (yes, the kind you can find in any other market), various vintage items, jewelry stalls and stalls where you will find items handmade by the locals.

Besides these, there are also many food stalls in the market where fresh and hot street food is served to you at ridiculous prices, which will allow you to enjoy traditional Thai dishes as well as decadent desserts such as banana loti, crepes and delicious delicious smoothie stalls.

But not only stalls - the neon market, which is open every day from 17:00 until midnight, is considered the center of the night life of the area where it is located, and if you are looking for a nice place to spend the evening on a good note, you will not have any trouble finding them around the market - bars with performances Animals (most of them are concentrated in the back of the market), excellent restaurants (especially those specializing in fruit and seafood) and cozy pubs.

And if you are among the serious shopping addicts and this market, which is not considered the largest in the city, did not satisfy you, you can also find nearby the famous shopping center Platinum fashion mall and the beloved market Pratunam Market.
