 The first sign you see on
leaving Lumpini MRT by JoelWillTravel, 4 more photos
I also tried the Tiger Beer area which was good, it had a big screen showing English football (which was GOOD). It also had a DJ playing music and a stage which was empty at the time but looked like some bands might play there sometimes.

 A Khmer Shrine to 21st Century
Retailing by Bangkokjoe
There are three problems tourists face with the Weekend Chatuchak Market; 1. It is only open at the weekend AND 2. It gets incredibly hot and therefore tiring to stay for longer than two hours AND 3. It is only open at the weekend AND and a fourth... 4. It is not open weekdays - just the weekend.
HOWEVER... The Suan Lum night market IS open every day (i.e. evening), and is plonked slap next to Lumpini Park on Rama IV Road. GREAT as this gives the mid-week heat avoiding tourist what does history in the light bits of the day a great get your holiday shopping stuff alternative. Yes it does look touristy, in that the majority of stalls offer crafts and gifts, and all are advertised by Thai Airways. But so what ? if you are looking for crafts and gifts, advertised by Thai Airways. Indeed, a great many Thais enjoy evening shopping, eating at the many cafes and the boozing at the many outdoor beer gardens. And it is a pretty large area all right. (A "meet you back in half an hour" sort of area.) And there's that Joe Louis Puppet Theatre to gawp at if you wish. Show times 7.30 / 8.00pm.
I have no idea where the photographed Khmer entry gate in the shape of an ancient Angkor library came from, but do I mind? Nup. It is beautifully Thai in its playfulness. And when you get there, look out for the marvelous way "official" is spelt over each of the entry gateways? And if you stub your toe on the Khmer temple it doesn't hurt. As it is made of fibreglass stuff.
The lasses can go shopping while the lads go Thai Boxing next door at Lumpini Stadium. Meet back for refreshments afterwards. And sexist comments like that are uncalled for Ian - editor Leave a Comment Directions: Suan Lum borders Lumpini Park (on the police station side), and Rama IV Road (near the Lumpini Boxing Stadium). It starts to get going around 6.30pm.

 In the Food Court at Suan Lum
Nigh Bazaar by mightywease
In the beer garden either go to the bars or look for the waiters selling Chang or Tiger beer, which are at fairy reasonable prices (50 to 100 Baht, 0.70 to 1.40 sterling per bottle). Otherwise you may be offer Western imported beer at an exorbitant price (Erdinger and Heineken for the equivalent of about 5.00 stertling per litre) Leave a Comment

The market it's like the XiangYang Market locate in Shanghai City, China. Since it's Night Market, the open time is from 19:00 to 24:00. There are lot of good can choice as gift to friends. But when you want buy something, please ask price at least three store, then you will got price. Normally, you can reduce the 50% of the quoted price and you can got the special price after midnight.
And you can't image is there are a big outdoor bar in the center of market, the area of the bar like a stanared football field. And you also can see the band show during you in the bar.
Only one thing is not good, if you leave the market after midnight, you have to negotiate with the tax driver. Usually, you need add 30% than the normal price.

The night market at Suan Lam seems like a much cleaner, less crowded copy of the Chatachuk Weekend Market.
The night I visited it was certainly not as crowded as JJ's but I didn't find the stalls as interesting, maybe the lack of crowds didn't help.
There is a large area in the market with a large stage at one end and a big open area in front where you can eat, drink and watch the entertainment, but note that you will need to purchase vouchers before you can get any food from the stalls that surround the square. Leave a Comment
