Talat Kao is a paradise for Chinese food lovers. The market offers a variety of ingredients and herbal drinks. Don't miss the scrumptious shrimp dumplings and noodles, all at reasonable prices. For more street food, venture out to Charoenkrung Road nearby.
Talat Kao stands out with its unique selection of wigs, shoes, craft supplies, and trinkets. The market is a maze of alleyways perfect for exploring, with plenty of street treats to keep you satisfied. Come hungry and ready to discover.
This historic market, one of the oldest in Bangkok, offers a variety of ready-made specialties such as rainbow lobster balls, seafood sausages, and fermented cabbage. Opening at 4 a.m., it's a food haven with dishes crafted over decades. The market also sells prayer goodies, and while parking is limited, underground trains and taxis are convenient options.
Talat Kao, located in the heart of Chinatown on Soi Yaowarat 11, is a bustling market filled with beauty accessories like hairpins, wigs, and keychains. Street food stalls abound, offering mini tables and chairs for a quick, delicious bite.

Wat Mangkon Kamalawat, which means "Dragon Lotus Temple," is a beautiful Chinese Buddhist temple located in the heart of Bangkok's Chinatown. During Chinese New Year, it's adorned with red lanterns and filled with people praying for blessings. The temple is very clean and features many shrines dedicated to various deities, including a statue of Sun Wukong.
