Khao San Road Area

Frommer's Review

The nighttime stalls on Khao San Road cater to young travelers and as such, this is where you'll find the funkiest bits and bobs in town. From everything from hip-hop fashions and cool T-shirts, to silver wares or original artworks, this is your place. It's worth the trip for the atmosphere alone -- bass-thumping clubs, busy bars, and Internet cafes attract crowds of tattooed, pierced, and, yes, plain ordinary travelers, going or coming from all corners of Asia. The area just north of Khao San Road is a maze of small department stores, shops, and very affordable retail goods.
