Lonely Planet review

Only a few years old, this night-time souvenir market was just finding its niche when developers announced its closure. Possible redevelopment includes Thailand's tallest skyscraper, yet another mega-mall and maybe even a faux floating market. But court battles between competing interests have kept the night bazaar in limbo. Although there are still some vendors, no one knows how long they'll remain before being evicted.

At the time of writing, the bazaar is scheduled be replaced by, surprise, surprise, a megamall in late 2008, but don't hold your breath - we certainly aren't.
