JJ Market section #2


How to get there, Jatujak Market Section #2 ????
The closest way is to take MRT 
and 
get off at Khamphaeng Phet station,
you will be right in front of the section #2. 
If you are looking for design and trendy items,
section #2 is the place for you.

Before H&M, Forever XXI, Top Shop, and probably Zara
getting introduced in Asia market and in Thailand,
section #2 was the destination for shopping mania and indy people.
Yep! the price range is from 200 - 1,000 baht
Not bad, right?

I would say it's a coolest area in JJ market. 


In the past, tourists got bush up their negotiation skills
from their tour guide; some good and some bad :-)
Today, traveling in Thailand, especially in Bangkok,
it's more simply and easy to do it on your own.
My advice is...
most friendly attitude and big smile would be a possible deal.



Section #2 has variety of accessories;
wedding ceremony, casual day, semi-official day, ... 
Those are executions for visiting this section. 




A little house of spirit has full of offering from those sellers. 


Fashion of the week :-)
You may tell where they are from...

Jatujak Market section 3 and 21

Between the two sections!!

My Saturday shopping hour at around 10 am. It's gloomy day but lovely without the heat. Yes, I got there just about right time, easy parking, not too crowded. It's also a peak time for westerner. Since last year, more visitors around southeast Asia have been a majority here.

Market hour: Saturday opens early for tourists as many of them have been told and scared of the weather. It's getting hot during the day.  On Saturday, you can shop late till 6.30 or 7 pm.  Restaurant or small pub there opens until 9 pm.  On Sunday, many shop open a bit late around 9.30 or 10 am and close early as well.

My favorite T-shirt shop, Appollo. It costs around $2.50 each


Self service shop. Just go and pick it yourself

Many stores in Jatutak market (JJ market) have the offering right in front of their store. Some big and some very small serve.  Generally, they pray for prosperity.  What is in there? All has its meaning. I'll bring it up to share you more in the near future.

This market only open once a week over the weekend. The whole sale normally starts on Friday early morning around 3 am and retail store operate only for weekend.  I have been told that the seller gives the offering once a week, normally on Saturday.







About here are items that tourists easily find along they trip in JJ market. The walking street around JJ market really a display to tempt all tourists to stop by and shop. Of course, a popular t-shirt of all the trademark (red bull, Singha beer, Change beer, Heineken,...) is just right there.

Some are more interesting in local crafts and handmade goods
