4,Amulet Market

 I did research on "Commercial traditional" in Bangkok.
 As a result of my research, I found that there are many attractive markets in Bangkok. Among them, there were also maniac places that are not on the ordinary guidebook. I introduce about these places below.


1,Flower Market

 Pak Klong Talad is the biggest wholesale and retail fresh flower market in Bangkok. The market has all kinds of popular flowers and flora-related items. Most of flowers sold in packs of 50 or 100 flowers in each, and prices are amazingly cheap. The best time to go is pre-dawn or at 3:00-4:00. This is because the vender receives floral goods from each flower growing area of the country, the street become colorful and beautiful.

2,Fish section in Chatuchak

 There are 100 stalls containing fish from simple goldfish to the most expensive arowanas. Each Thursday morning, the market turns over into a wholesale market, when breeders, farmers, and fish collectors from the outlying suburbs of Bangkok converge on the market to sell their fish to wholesalers and exporters in huge quantities. This store sells soil, sand and stones besides fish. A trophy is decorated above the crayfish‘s aquarium.

3,Talad Rot Fai Market

 This market is superior to any other market in the city, as we can get one-off thing that we rarely see in other markets. As the tent is colorful, we can see beautiful scenery by climbing nearby buildings. Unlike other markets in Bangkok, this market is particular not only about the shop but also about the road. Therefore, we can enjoy it even while walking on the road outside the shop, as well as inside the store.

4,Amulet Market

 In the north of the royal palace there are markets where various kinds of amulets are sold. We are missing the entrance as this market is in a place that is a bit far from the main street. We can buy many amulets at less than 100 baht. Sometimes we see a Thai wearing amulet. We will see someone who is seriously watching amulets with the magnifying glass on the market.
