Why we recommend it
The largest night market in the area, with a food section deep enough to justify the trip on its own.
Our review
The clothing and souvenir stalls are much like everywhere else in Thailand, priced fairly and worked by vendors who will let you browse in peace. The food court is the reason to come: enormous, cheap, and varied enough that a group with different tastes can all eat well. It is significantly bigger at the weekend than midweek, so time your visit accordingly. Loud, crowded, and worth it. Bring cash.
Highlights
- Very large food section
- Biggest Friday to Sunday
- Opens late afternoon
- Cash is easier than card
