Phuket Province

Other shopping in Phuket Province

  1. Talat Mai

    Nudge your way deep into one of Chinatown’s famous capillaries, where vendors sell dried goods, half-alive filleted fish and vats of unidentifiable pickled things. The soi ’s (lane’s) poetic finale is lined with stalls selling elaborate funeral offerings and ‘passports to heaven’ that include paper houses and cars to take loved ones into the next life. You’ll find all the action in Soi 6, also known as Trok Itsaranuphap, off Th Yaowarat.

    Mae Ubol Market

    This market has two shifts. In the morning, head to the warehouse, where you can see a bustling fresh market hard at haggle. It’s an entertaining scene. At 5pm the night market opens for business, meaning you can eat good Thai food and fresh seafood all night long if you want to.

  4. Or Tor Kor Market

    Across the street from Chatuchak Market, Or Tor Kor is Bangkok’s most upscale fresh market, selling what many swear are the tastiest pomelos around. Next to the produce vendors are food stalls that earn equal veneration for duck curries and other street treats.
