the famous flower market of Bangkok
Pak Klong Talad (Flower Market)
There are few experiences that have the potential to take your breath away like a visit to the famous Pak Klong Talad, the famous flower market of Bangkok.
This is the city’s largest market where the retail and wholesale of flowers are concerned, and it truly is massive. The offerings of the market are also equally comprehensive, featuring everything from a wide variety of flowers to various decorative gifts created using floral elements.
One of the most interesting factors about the market is that it is open 24/7, and the market is truly a most captivating sight during the later hours after midnight. Many would tell you that the best time to visit the market would be during the early hours of dawn, around 03:00am to 04:00am. This is when you can experience the market at its kaleidoscopic best.
During this time, massive trucks carrying bounties of flowers arrive to stock up the shops. Simultaneously, you would also be able to see large wholesale deals taking place because this is the time traders arrive to buy in bulk. If you’re visiting during the early hours, it's best to mostly observe since the vendors can be quite busy.

An international shopping experience
Terminal 21
It’s not always that one gets to travel the world by visiting a single shopping mall, but this is the case where Bangkok’s iconic Terminal 21 is concerned.
The shopping mall has been purposefully designed to resemble an international airport, and rightfully so because international “travels” do take place within. The mall boasts eight floors, with each being based on a famous destination the world has to offer. These include the Caribbean, Rome, Paris, Tokyo, London, Istanbul, San Francisco, and Hollywood.
Each section has been designed to reflect the destination-theme with the shops and outlets featured within it. For example, the floor associated with Rome features luxury boutique brands while the Hollywood section boasts the mall’s cinema, spa and fitness centre.
The themed sections have also been meticulously designed with elements and motifs from the regions they are based on. The London section, for example, is decorated with the city’s famous red phone boxes, double-decker buses, and even a replica of the Tower Bridge. The Tokyo section also features a range of similar motifs, such as sculptures of Sumo, Samurai and Torii, and the floor is designed to resemble famous Japanese markets such as the Nakamise-Dori market. This is definitely an experience you’re bound to remember for a lifetime.

invaluable insight into local culture and livelihoods
Pratunam Market
The Pratunam Market, located at the intersection of Petchburi and Ratchaprarop roads, not only offers its visitors fantastic choice in all manner of goods but also provides invaluable insight into local culture and livelihoods.
The expansive wholesale market comprises a literal maze of small stalls and street vendors selling a great variety of clothing items and accessories, including shorts, evening dresses, winter jackets, eccentric costumes and jewellery. The daily life of these street vendors will draw you back to a time before air-conditioned shopping malls, as you spy them working sewing machines, carting trolleys through the narrow aisles, packing and unpacking orders and chatting animatedly with each other from across the aisles.
Open 24 hours a day (retail shops stay open from 10:00am to 09:00pm), the Pratunam Market rarely requires visitors to test out their haggling skills – vendors usually sell items at the retail price and if you buy more than three of the same item at once you are often offered wholesale prices!
