TALAD ROT FAI TRAIN NIGHT MARKET IS NEW NIGHT BAZAAR IN BANGKOK FULL OF CHARM AND FUN AT ITS NEW LOCATION BEHIND ESPLANADE SHOPPING MALL OFF KING RAMA 9 ROAD. IT IS NOT AS BIG AS THE ORIGINAL LOCATED ON RAILWAY LAND (HENCE ITS NAME AS 'TALAT ROT FAI' MEANS 'TRAIN MARKET') BUT ITS COMPACT SIZE MEANS YOU CAN CHECK OUT EVERY SINGLE STALL WITHIN 1 HOUR! OF COURSE YOU SHOULD SPEND SEVERAL HOURS HERE SINCE IT IS NOW RELOCATED IN CENTRAL BANGKOK AND EASY TO GET TO BY PUBLIC TRANSPORT. IT IS ON RATCHADAPHISEK ROAD AND THE NEAREST MRT IS NATIONAL CULTURAL CENTRE STATION.

TALAT ROT FAI OR TRAIN MARKET BUZZES FROM 6 PM TO MIDNIGHT AND CLOSES ON MONDAY SO TAKE NOTES.

Like most bazaars there are rows selling nothing but food followed by 5 rows selling clothes, shoes, accessories and wardrobe stuff followed by more restaurants and lounges and finally shops selling more fashion and vintage flotsam and jetsam.

Very pleasant to spend an evening or two!
