What to do and see in Silom, Thailand: The Best Flea & Street Markets

May 11, 2022 Augustus Redeker

Golden palaces, floating markets, majestic porcelain-laid spires…you've never seen a capital city quite like Bangkok. Visit Pratunam or Siam Square for premium shopping, then unwind in the European-style gardens of Dusit. Thon Buri is home to the awesome Wat Arun temple, and over in Phra Nakhon, you’ll find the Wat Pho temple of the Reclining Buddha. Savor mango sticky rice at a food stall before taking in the gilded splendor of the Grand Palace.

Bangrak Bazaar

This is one of the many night markets in bangkok city. The attraction is good to be listed for those staying in Silom area as alternative to the famous night markets in Bangkok.

Ate here several times during our stay in Bangkok, it’s well worth looking for the indoor street food stalls, look for lots of tables in rows with blue plastic table cloths, lots of Thai people eat here which is a really good sign. If you are new to a Thai street food don’t be put off by the basic nature of the surroundings; the stalls have pictures and they mainly have the title of the dish in English, but you can just point at the picture of what you fancy, the stall holder will advise if you need rice as a side dish, but you always check. Most of the stall holders we went to spoke enough English to tell you if the dish was hot or not hot. All the stalls we tried were great, but at the end furthest from the main entrance there was a lovely family stall where the lady wears an apron and chefs cap style hat! We went to her stall twice at the start of our two week visit in Thailand, and she remembered us when we returned on our last day, greeting us like old friends! You can sit anywhere so it’s ok to get different food from different stalls, you can take your own water with you from the supermarket, or you can get beer, fresh coconut and some soft drinks from stalls near the entrance of the market! Would highly recommend it!

Patpong Night Market

In the evening, this lively market is a great place to shop for souvenirs, fake brand name items and cheap goods and to visit Bangkok’s infamous “adult entertainment area.”

Fascinating night market at patpong. Stones throw away from the BTS Sala Daeng. You get anything and everything over here, from fake watches to t shirts to sex toys etc. Good place for picking up some souvenirs too over. Tip : Make sure to bargain at like literally half the rate ! Lots of food options too around. Once you are done at the market, make sure to get a lovely foot massage around.
