Hua Takhe Old Market · Reviews
Sure, it’s a bit of a trek to get there, but Hua Takhe offers a unique blend of peaceful river views and quirky experiences—like chilling with cats on a boat ride. It’s one of those spots that feels like a little secret once you’re in the know.
Nora L. (2026)If you’re into artsy scenes and quiet corners, Hua Takhe’s little hidden area behind the main market is worth a peek. There’s something nice about sitting in a cafe overlooking the canals, watching the world drift by while checking out local paintings or even trying your hand at some art yourself.
Theodore (2026)We got there pretty early, so most shops were still closed, but it was cool seeing the students hustle through the market paths on their way to school. The mix of food stalls and artisan shops tucked inside gave it a laid-back yet lively feel, and the boat rides along the canal were a nice bonus.
Phongsak (2026)Wandering around Hua Takhe felt like stepping back in time, with its calm vibe and charming little cafes by the river. The locals were super friendly, helping us find our way and even pointing out some great photo spots. Definitely a place that grows on you the longer you explore.
