My Bangkok Trip....2nd day

This is my 2nd day's breakfast....wanna eat full full then can shop for whole day.....
Ya, we wanna go to our.....

5th Location: Chatuchak Market Bangkok (Weekend market)

We take the skytrain (BTS) to Mo Chit station and exit down the right-hand stairs, follow the crowd for a five-minute walk, and you're there.
Getting to Chatuchak Weekend Market early will give you the advantage of getting there before the crowds, and escaping the heat...
At Chatuchak Market, There are two ways to approach your shopping excursion.
Firstly, to get a free map from one of the information kiosks and (try to) plan your adventure through the never-ending maze of crowded, narrow alleys that are, surprisingly, numbered. But, it's so big that even with a map you might find yourself going around in circles.

Areas are also demarcated in colour zones with clothing and fashion items grouped together, a section for household goods, crafts, pets, art and collectables, plants, wholesale items, food, and everything in between.

The second way is to just follow your instincts and leave it all up to karma. Either way, it's virtually impossible to see it all in one day - and even more unlikely that you won't find something to get excited aboutIf you are able to keep track of where you're going and can cover a big part of the market, you'll be amazed with the sheer variety of merchandise.
From roosters and chopsticks to vinyl records and a pair of Levi hipsters that you haven't seen in shops for years. You can buy a python, beautiful orchids, garden furniture, and camo wear. Or beads, fake antiques, the latest Caf- del Mar CD...
The earlier you get there, the better too. Not only to make sure you have enough time to cover it all, but also to get a head-start before it gets too crowdy and hot.
