It’s a travel photographer’s dream, packed with shouting market vendors offering live produce, fresh fruit and vegetables and cooked local dishes. Eye-opening and enthralling, it’s a great insight into how locals live – and to where your moo manow really comes from. « less

This attraction is very interesting but fast disappearing. If you think you this will fill in you day looking at the canals, forget it. We went on a private tour and it was done in 1 hour. There was a lady selling fish food, and some restaurants where you could eat. It's was refreshing the it was their natural way... More

This is the super grocery store of the locals! You can find just about anything there! Be prepared, they do slaughter meat there. The vegetables are all beautiful, as is the seafood. The people are friendly and helpful. Definitely worth a visit just to check it out! Even acupuncturist here...but would expect nothing less since you can get liposuction or... More

The markets sell a variety of fruit, vegetables, meats, fish and a limited amount of clothing. The vegetables and fruit are very fresh, and are at a great price.

This massive fresh market is a pinnacle in Bangkiok. I must agree that this is almost a historic part of Bangkok but it also shows the brutality of Thai culture towards animals. Specifically the Chickens and ducks being butchered right in front of your face. It's a quick slice to the throat then a long toss (3-4 meters) into a... More

The Khlong Toey Market is an amazing assault on the senses, from the smell of raw meat and fish on rickety stands to the sights of entrails and filth. This food market is not for the light-hearted – a walk through the canopied market corridors is a journey into the Thai palette, where every part of an animal is eaten... More
