This is the world’s largest outdoor market And I’m going show you how to survive it
Chatuchak market is the largest outdoor market in the entire world
It’s absolutely massive!
It’s about 35 acres I’m not sure whether that’s true or not.
But it’s absolutely huge
This is the world’s largest outdoor market so obviously you need to come dressed for
the occasion I decided to wear some fitness gear and some
gym shoes And that’s helping me to keep cool and my
feet feel okay
So although Chatuchak market is technically an outdoor market, as you can see there’s
a roof above us It helps keep us that little bit cooler
Now you need to remember we are in Thailand right now
So obviously it’s really, really hot So I recommend the best time to come to Chatuchak
market is earlier in the morning It opens from 8 or 9am so make sure you come
in early.
You can beat the heat and even beat the crowds
And that leads us to our next tip.
Remember to stay hydrated I’m super thirsty right now so I’m going
to go find some water or hopefully even a coconut.
We’ll see!
I finally got my coconut!
So it’s really important to stay as hydrated as possible when you’re at Chatuchak
Like I said before, it’s super hot.
Luckily, I found a coconut so I’m very, very happy
One of the things that is really going to help you if you’re coming to Chatucjak market
is downloading a map There are loads of maps available online and
for free They’re all really sectioned off into different
areas with corresponding numbers You can see the numbers all around you all
over the market
Having a map will help you find exactly where you need to go to get whatever it is you’re
after
One of the things I really love about Chatuchak is you never actually know what will be around
the next corner So, right now we’re in kind of a lights
area but you turn the corner and you’re around brand new and really cheap clothing
You literally never know what you’re going to get.
It’s so cool!
These signs around you are going to be your best friend while you’re at Chatuchak market
They’re all really, really clearly labelled so you don’t need to worry if you’re not
sure about buying something at the time Just simply use your phone, snap a picture,
and you can come back and grab it later
Everything is really clearly broken down into sections, so you can see this area here has
lots of different beautiful lights for sale Lots of incense and other things that would
make great souvenirs
Chatuchak market literally has everything you can imagine
It even has a place to get a massage So, after all that walking, your feet are
going to be tired So just pop into somewhere like the place
behind me and get a foot massage!
You’ll feel a whole lot better!
So another tip I have is that when you come to Chatuchak you should have some idea in
mind of what exactly you want to buy So today I’m looking for a new crop top
And luckily I found a pretty cool one hanging up at this shop
Okay, this top is 200 baht.
I really love it, I’m gonna get it
Now I’ve already done you a favor, so it’s time you do one for me
