Khlong Thom Market is one of the oldest street markets in Bangkok. Covering the 4 main roads of Yaowarat (Chinatown), it gets especially crowded late on Saturday evenings with a motley of stalls selling a wide range of second-hand goods and souvenirs. Besides the roadside stalls, there's also a 3-storey Khlong Thom Centre (near Worachak Road), where car accessories and toys are for sale.

Shopping at Khlong Thom Market
Khlong Thom Market is almost like a huge shopping mall, but everything is laid out in the open and with little to no sense of order. Along the lanes, you might come across an oddity that might appeal to your curiosity, whether it’s a discontinued toy or a decades-old brass lamp. Not everything at the market is second-hand – some shops offer brand-new, but usually knock-off items like handbags, shoes, and clothes.
