Suan Lum Night Market

This large night market, which gets started daily around 6pm, is your best bet for souvenir shopping, if you can't make it to the Weekend Market. It features thousands of booths selling everything imaginable, such as carved soaps, T-shirts, colorful lamps, ceramics, and original art, but is smaller and more manageable than mighty Chatuchak. Occupying a prime piece of real estate, it has been threatened with closure almost since it opened, but in the current difficult economic climate it is proving a good source of tourist dollars. There's also a food court, a beer garden, and nightly live music.
