Suan Lum Night Bazaar is the city's first official night bazaar. The market is smaller and easier to navigate than its day counterpart (Chatuchak), and is complemented by an international open food court and lively beer garden, where local bands blast out local and international favorite tunes. The stalls offer the usual tourist-friendly mix of Thai craft, textiles, silverware, jewellery, home decorative items, home furniture and so much more.
The whole place is well worth looking around or you can just sit down, unwind, and watch the world around you go by while sipping on draft beer and trying to avoid chillis in your 'somtam' (spicy papaya salad). While you're there, make the most of your trip by witnessing a Thai traditional small puppet show, Joe Louis Puppet Theatre, which has recently been awarded 'The Best Cultural Performance' at the 10th World Festival of Puppet Art in Prague. Not to be missed! Open daily from 18:00 onwards.
