Thailand Guide | Phuket Town Weekend Market

When traveling to Phuket, in addition to the charming beaches and coastal scenery, there is one thing you cannot miss, and that is visiting the night market. · There are actually quite a lot of night markets on Phuket, but the one I recommend most is Phuket’s weekend night market, which I think is the most fun and local night market. · · Phuket Weekend Market (locally known as Naka Market) is located on Chao Fa West Road on the outskirts of Phuket Town, not far from Central Department Store. · In addition to a variety of Phuket's local specialties, this is a fascinating place where second-hand goods, antiques, pirated products and fresh animals gather. · Therefore, this is not only a place worth visiting for tourists, but also a night market where locals gather to play, which is very lively. · The Phuket Weekend Market is divided into two areas: indoor area and open area. In the indoor area, there is a huge selection of second-hand jeans, T-shirts, antiques, useless-looking but beautiful tourist goods, and tourist souvenirs like carvings and religious images. In the "new" area outside, there are stalls selling stuffed animals, mobile phones, all kinds of electronic products, DVDs and CDs, shoes, bags, jewelry and fashion accessories, watches and clothes. The variety is really complete! · To the right of the gate is the food area. There's sweet butter-poached corn, spicy sausage, grilled chicken breast, fish cakes, exotic fruits and even stir-fried insects. · My personal recommendation is that you must drink the local fresh mango juice and the special Thai mango sticky rice. Of course, the fresh seafood barbecue is also worth a try~ · 【Opening hours】: Saturday and Sunday 16:00 to 21:00 【Traffic Suggestions】： It's a bit far from Patong Beach, but you can take a taxi. It's more suitable for those who live in Phuket Town and come here to check out the weekend market.
