Markets
Despite the growing number of shopping centers and malls, markets remain one of the most popular ways for Thais to shop. They have retained their charm to a great extent and a visit to one of these markets can be very rewarding in terms of the sheer experience, as also shopping for self or for souvenirs to take back home.
