Located at the intersection of Phanyothin Road and Ratchadapesek in the northern district of Chatuchak, is one of Bangkok’s unknown night markets. The grand opening of April 8th, 2023 was the start of this night market next to the elephant building.
It consists of two sections. The outer section is set up with a flea market atmosphere. It features vintage products, clothing, toys and pretty much anything else. The inner section features new clothing, accessories and 2 rows of food. It’s open each evening from 4 to midnight.
It’s easily accessible by the light green Sukumvit BTS line by either the Ratchiotin or Phanyothin 24 stations.
The market has lots of space to grow and still has many stalls for new vendors. It has contracted in size since the grand opening but it looks like the management is working hard to grow the market.

Phra Thinang Yen (Kraison Siharat Hall) พระที่นั่งเย็น, also known as the Yen Palace or Thale Chup Son Hall, is a historic royal residential pavilion located approximately 4–5 km north of central Lopburi town, Thailand. This structure stands apart from the more prominent Phra Thinang Yen pavilion found within the main King Narai’s Palace in the city center, serving instead as a smaller, more secluded secondary residence constructed by King Narai the Great.
The pavilion dates back to the reign of King Narai (1656–1688) of the Ayutthaya Kingdom, functioning as one of his private retreats beyond the main palace confines. Originally positioned on an artificial island amid Thale Chup Son, a vast freshwater lake that has since largely receded into remnants serving as a reservoir, the site offered a tranquil, elevated sanctuary surrounded by water for both cooling relief and natural fortification.
This lake itself bears notable Khmer influence, as Lopburi fell under the ...
Wat Mahinsaram (วัดมหิงษาราม) is a small, historic Buddhist temple located in Bang Krabue, Sam Khok District, Pathum Thani Province. Dating back to the Ayutthaya Period, it stands as one of the oldest surviving temples in the province and reflects the strong Mon cultural influence along the Chao Phraya River.
Originally built close to the riverbank during the Ayutthaya era by Mon settlers, the temple was once abandoned (locally called “Wat Rang”) when severe erosion and sediment shifts dramatically altered the river’s course, leaving the original site isolated. The land in front of the temple gradually extended far into the Chao Phraya, a striking example of the river’s natural changes over centuries.
Restored in the late 19th to early 20th century, it regained its status as an active royal temple of the Mahanikaya sect, preserving its ancient character amid a quiet rural setting.
Wat Mahinsaram remains a quiet, authentic gem—far from tourist crowds—that captures ...
Lopburi province is home to the biggest sunflower fields in Thailand. Every year thousands of acres are filled with this beautiful bright yellow flower, that is in blossom between November and January. The largest fields are located in the Phatthana Nikom district, a little over 40 kilometers East of the provincial capital.
The sunflowers are a beautiful sight and have become an important tourist attraction, the sunflowers are grown to produce sunflower oil used for cooking and for their seeds, that are also eaten as a light snack.
The farms also also feature small farmers markets. You can buy locally grown produce on sight as a way to support the local farmers.
This is one of the top 5 things to do in Lopburi and is very popular for the Thais to visit during the cooler months when the sunflowers are in full bloom.
