BANGKOK, Thailand - They're crowded, sticky and sweltering hot, but when it comes to bargain-hunting, Bangkok's markets are well worth the effort.

Scout for that dream table lamp, wooden chest or Thai silk scarf at dirt-cheap prices, and after a hard day's shopping, revive those weary bones with a great value massage at one of the city's many day spas.

For a mind-boggling array of goods, hit the Chatuchak Weekend Market — a vast, chaotic maze of at least 8,000 stalls that bills itself as one of the largest markets in the world

Nice place and good website

Yes, They're crowded, sticky and sweltering hot but it is a good place to shop and EAT.
YOU CAN EVEN FIND CHEROOT (BURMESE MAKE) THERE APART FROM OTHER BURMESE PRODUCTS.

THE FOOD THERE IS VERY CHEAP AND VERY VERY GOOD (AT LEAST TO MY TASTE).

Are you on night to answer now so late in Hong Kong .

Hi Linsi,

Not only I like to eat but also I like to cook.
Before I used to go out every evening (around midnight) and enjoy all sort of food.
The food used to be very cheap and good but now with the cost of living going through the roof, the food are not that good and the prices are also very high. Apart from that, hygienic at the shops are not that good nowadays so I stop going out.

Only when I am out of my country, I will go around and enjoy the food.

I still missed Philippino food and my philippino friend (Robert) who passed away.
