"Thailand's Ultimate Outdoor Shopping Experience The mother of unique Bangkok retail experiences is undoubtedly Chatuchak Weekend Market, Thailand ’s largest outdoor bazaar. Known as Jatujak or simply JJ, it has15,000 stalls spread over 35 acres andsells almost everything under the sun. This is the place to buy a Beatles cushion or shopfor a new pet cobra or a hand-carved Buddha icon. With 200,000 people descending on the market every weekend, it's best to come early, and perseverance can uncover a veritable treasure trove of collectibles ranging from beautiful ceramics and handicrafts to exquisite jewelry."
