The place is so packed that stalls actually spill over onto the footpaths around the market. It’s a big place to wander around, and you should put away at least a couple of hours to do it. The night bazaar building has so many shops selling Thai handicrafts, souvenirs, antiques, clothes, hilltribe, products, wood carving, silverwares, lacquerware, ceramic, paintings, Thai silk and cotton, etc.
Aside from local handicrafts, you can buy virtually anything you can think of at the market – ‘Rolex’ watches, silk, jewelry and more high-tech items like TVs and DVD plays and CDs. As with many markets, the Night Bazaar also offers some of the best street food you are likely to come across. Catering for the large number of foreigners visiting, the bazaar also offers camera shops, travel agents and internet cafes.
One service the bazaar offers that seems eternally popular is portrait paintings from photos. Alternatively, have your portrait painted in Thai costume! For shopping, there are so many sidewalk stalls selling all kinds of items. Be prepared to bargain and don't forget too – especially if you buy more than one, you'll get a better price.
Best way to see everything is to start at one side of the street. Walk all the way down, stopping off to go into the two or three storey building (depending on which side of the street you're on) to check out the thousands of indoor stalls. Then, back on the street to the end, cross the road and go back down the other side, also checking out the large building with more indoor shops.
The market runs the length of a three block area, plus many stalls indoors, so there should be something for everyone. Also, Opposite to the night bazaar building there is a place where food and drinks are sold. The Galare Plus 2 Shopping Center offers dining, dancing and entertainment.
The shopping street opens around 6:00 p.m. every evening and begins to close down around 11 p.m.
