So how many times have we visited Chatuchak Weekend Market?
Every time we go we see more different things for sale and we go quite often.
The last time we went (2020) they were adding more controlled dining - I imagine that these are very quiet at the moment though?
What these singers had to do with the plates that were on sale I don't know?
But there are always a lot of cuddly toys.
But I wonder who was going to buy this? If I was younger it might have been me!
Here's a pdf map.
And here's another video of all the images.
