Do you hate to shop among
very hot and crowded malls at daylight?
Do you feel bored when
the things you want don't worth the price?
Do you want to shop and
hang around the long riversides?
Well...here " Saphan
Phut Night Market " is the right place for you :))
As famous for the beautiful views from the Bridge for taking photos , the great meeting points, and the excellent place to shop at night, Saphan Phut night market (The Memorial Bridge) has rapidly become popular among Thai teenagers for a long time.
Since " Saphan" means " Bridge" in English, so the shopping area is located along the Chao Phraya Riversides under the Saphan Phut bridge (The Memorial Bridge). As you can see it stretching for a long way, on both sides of the road, and crammed with stalls selling the variety kind of goods in the picture below .
The market opens from 5 pm until 12.00 pm every night (
except Mondays).
You can easily get there by 3 ways.
1. Take a bus ; number 6, 7ก , 7 , 8, 9 , 73, 82
2. Take a boat on the Chao Phraya River and get off at
Saphan Phut pier.
(You will see the market as soon as you get off the boat.)
3.
Take a taxi LOL
Here, there are hundreds of items, for example, second-hand jeans ,
vintage stuffs, trendy pants, brand-name clothing, shoes bags, purses,
belts, accessories, and fashionable clothes for men, women, and children
to buy with very cheap price.
Personally, T-shirts are especially good!
The price starts as low as 99
baht for top quality shirts. In each
T-shirt stall, they designed their own
prints or drawings on their products ,
so the same styles and prints will
not bother you in other stalls around there.
Jeans, pants, skirts, and dresses are also
worth buying. Dresses can be
bought for as cheap as 159 baht and skirts for
130 baht .
Sports shoes,running shoes, casual shoes,
or teenage
sneakers are also sold as low as 350 baht.
There are also a few of tattoo shops and plenty of young artists drawing and paining around there.
Don't miss to visit, if you want to get a cool drawings or Thai tattoos. :)
Anyway, some of you may wonder about the
quality of those varieties of goods, right??
I can say that the quality is worth than
its prices.
For my199- baht pant, I bought it 7 months
ago and found out that the color never faded, the shape never changes, and the
broken sewing never happens. :))
Also this pink polka dot shirt, I bought it for
159 baht almost 3 months ago. :)
See?? CHEAP !! GOOD!! WORTH !!
AND can't be found anywhere else !!
VISIT here " SAPHAN PHUT NIGHT MARKET
" a real PARADISE on earth!! hahaha
Catch ya on next post !! :))

It is a good place but you have to be careful about the thief.
ReplyDeleteOh yes!! Thank you for your warning :)
ReplyDeleteI have never been there before. I have heard about three are too many bike riders there. So it's quite dangerous there. Be careful. However I enjoy shopping, I will go there if I have a chance. I will not forget to carry money and sth. to protect myself as well.
ReplyDelete@jajahja I was there last week the safety system is much better I saw many police around the market. Anyway, I agree with you ..we have to protect ourselves first! :)
ReplyDeleteI usually go there because there are a lot of shoes, clothes, belt and so on.. even though some clothes are second hand, it's still in a good shape that's why I always go there!!
ReplyDeleteI very love to shopping at Saphan Phut. there was many things to buy; especially fashion clothing. And the one that I love Saphan Phut is drinking on the Saphan Phut bridge. It's very chill!!!
ReplyDeletecheaper is better.
ReplyDeleteI don't like to Saphan Phut because it has many bad boys or men, so I think that it's dangerous that I will go to shopping :(
ReplyDeleteI've heard a lot of Saphan Phut Night Market for a long time but it's very far from my home.I've never been there, by the way, it's interested me so much I will go there some day.
ReplyDeleteThat's so interesting. I never been there because it's far from my apartment. If I have a chance to go there, except the cloth, are there anything else that you'd like to recommend?
ReplyDeleteI am intrigued about the market and have decided to include the saphan phut NM into the agenda. I think there is only so much chatuchak and patpong market to stomach.
