Ratchada Train Market
This is the sister market to Rod Fai, and it has a smaller selection but the same retro vibe with the added bonus of being much closer to downtown Bangkok. Local brands, vintage clothing, fashion accessories, and even a barbershop fill the lanes of this large market. Enjoy boat noodles and cold beers or som tum papaya salad and a hydrating coconut; the market has three sections of food stalls, making it near impossible to leave hungry. The evening hours (5pm-1am Thursday to Sunday) bring a welcome break from the hot sun. The market is pretty famous on Instagram and the colorful roofs of each vendor make great photos.
