Gem traders, gold dealers and household appliance vendors labor beneath a chaotic jungle of signs that at night turn Yaowarat into a neon-splashed mini-Hong Kong, with all the friendliness of Thailand.

The place at which they arrived is now the site of Wat Arun, the temple of the dawn. Initially it was to serve as a palace chapel for Taksin’s new abode. The 86m/282ft central prang with four smaller prangs around it has now become Bangkok’s leading landmark, even though it actually stands across the river in Thonburi. The outside of the brick building is decorated with thousands of porcelain details that were donated by the people of Bangkok and added at a later date. The construction method of Wat Arun is fascinating. Since the ground beneath it was so swampy, thousands of bamboo stems were laid across one another and the spaces created by this lattice were filled with clay. In this way, a foundation capable of bearing a sufficient weight was created. It is well worth climbing to the top of the prang to experience the fabulous view. On the other side of the river, another wonderful sight can be seen: the setting of the sun over Wat Arun." favorite="" full_name="Wat Arun, Bangkok, Thailand" googled_path="Thailand/Bangkok/Wat-Arun" hidden="0" href="http://www.tripwolf.com/en/guide/show/290390/Thailand/Bangkok/Wat-Arun" id="290390" inherited="0" is_poi="1" item_name="Wat Arun, Bangkok, Thailand" language="ENG" latitude="13.7435" longitude="100.4895" ltp_level="0" parents_name="Bangkok, Thailand" rating="5" recommended="" status_description="4" status_name="1" status_tags="0" status_teaser="2" teaser="Translated - The temple of the dawn" teaser_or_description="&lt;b&gt;Translated - The temple of the dawn.&lt;/b&gt; As Ayutthaya lay in ashes after conquest by the Burmese, General Taksin undertook to march the remaining survivors “until the sun rises again” and vowed to erect a t..." teaser_or_description_short="&lt;b&gt;Translated - The temple of the dawn.&lt;/b&gt; As Ayutthaya lay in ashes after conquest by the Burmese, General Taksin undertook to ..." type="13" type_id="13" type_name="sight" votes="8" zoom="4">

    <triplocations name="Chatuchak Weekend Market" description="Our friend René, a Mexican animator and long-term Bangkok dilettante, compares the city’s Chatuchak Market to the Hogwarts School of Harry Potter lore: When you move around it everything starts to shift, and by the time you return to where you were before, it is no longer there. René hardly ever makes sense, but we suspect his point in this case is that if you see something you like in Chatuchak, buy it right away because you’ll probably never find it again. After enough sweltering hours of browsing on a recent visit, it seemed like even the sky train station was no longer where we last left it. 

Orientation probably won’t get any easier as Southeast Asia’s largest market seems intent on ballooning by the month. At last count its estimated 15,000 stalls covered an area of 120,000 square meters. Each weekend over 300,000 visitors descend on the place, combining to spend upwards of $800,000. The bird trade alone boggles the mind (and damages the ears): Around 36,000 winged things are sold at Chatuchak each day, including endangered species. Indeed, the raucous pet section with its tarantulas, snakes, Iguanas and droopy-eyed, Please-Take-Me-Home-With-You puppies must be seen to be believed. Even carnivorous piranhas are reportedly sold on the black market here for B3,000 (about $72) a pop.

But Chatuchak (also nicknamed JJs - from the alternative spelling, Jatujak) is more than just a bustling, ever-expanding market. In recent years it’s become a hip scene in its own right. Outdoor pubs offering ice-cold draught on tap and modish cafés serving hearty Thai fare are nestled between stalls hawking 70s retro fashion, vintage Levi’s Red Tab and Big E jeans, designer incense sticks and battered U.S. and Japanese army fatigues. Even the ultra-trendy Princess Ubolrat has been spotted scouring for fashionable threads here, further adding a notch to Chatuchak’s ‘cool’ factor. 

In fact we can hardly think of anything wrong with a place that offers easy access, great food, a trendy atmosphere, excellent bargains, a kaleidoscope of color and sights and sounds, and a choice of virtually every product under the sun. Perhaps that last point hints at the only real downside; Chatuchak can get mighty hot around midday, so get there early to beat the heat and the crowds." favorite="" full_name="Chatuchak Weekend Market, Bangkok, Thailand" googled_path="Thailand/Bangkok/Chatuchak-Weekend-Market" hidden="0" href="http://www.tripwolf.com/en/guide/show/290411/Thailand/Bangkok/Chatuchak-Weekend-Market" id="290411" inherited="0" is_poi="1" item_name="Chatuchak Weekend Market, Bangkok, Thailand" language="ENG" latitude="13.79967" longitude="100.55149" ltp_level="0" parents_name="Bangkok, Thailand" rating="5" recommended="" status_description="4" status_name="1" status_tags="0" status_teaser="2" teaser="The largest market in Thailand...most stalls are open on the weekends, hence the name." teaser_or_description="&lt;b&gt;The largest market in Thailand...most stalls are open on the weekends, hence the name.&lt;/b&gt; Our friend René, a Mexican animator and long-term Bangkok dilettante, compares the city’s Chatuchak Market to the ..." teaser_or_description_short="&lt;b&gt;The largest market in Thailand...most stalls are open on the weekends, hence the name.&lt;/b&gt; Our friend René, a Mexican animato..." type="27" type_id="27" type_name="shop" votes="17" zoom="15">

    <triplocations name="Khao San Road" description="Thai noodle and pancake vendors compete for precious space with gourmet coffee outlets and Western fast food chains; two-dollar-a-night guesthouses are being overtaken by multi-story hotels boasting gleaming lobbies and rooftop swimming pools; and the experience of queuing for much-anticipated mail at the local post restante is but a distant memory amidst the fire-wire atmosphere of Kaosan’s countless air-conditioned cyber cafes. Some internet shops boast computer keyboards in Korean, Japanese and Hebrew – an internationalization mirrored just outside by swanky food stalls serving up sushi, hummus and falafel. And the street’s most recent incarnation as a pedestrian promenade means no more tuk-tuks jamming the road in search of customers for gem shop tours or Pat Pong brothels.

Jade Buddha(also known as the Emerald Buddha) in Wat Phra Kaeo. Each of the buildings within the compound, which covers an area of 218,400 sq m/54 acres, expresses one of the stylistic and cultural epochs of Thai history and, in particular, the character of the reigning kings. The buildings in the whole of the consecrated area have retained the style of the age when they were built in spite of repeated restoration. Each of the many renovations has concentrated on preserving the pure essence of the originals, and particularly of the huge murals that have always suffered from severe atmospheric pollution in the ever-expanding city of Bangkok.
Wat Phra Kaeo(Temple of the Emerald Buddha). The guardian figures were sponsored by Chinese merchants and seem a little out of place in a setting that is otherwise dominated by typically Thai architecture. At the entrance gate there are murals depicting the opening of the Ramakien epicas well as marble tablets with inscriptions that were put in place by King Chulalongkorn(Rama V).
