Thepprasit Night Market, Pattaya: A Bustling Shopper's Paradise

The best time to visit the weekend night market is during its high season, which runs from November to March, just like most other tourist destinations in Thailand. But if one wants to travel on a budget to Thailand in the off-season, checking out the weekend night markets is also a good idea. The weekend market is typically crowded and open on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. On other days of the week, you might still find a few stalls open, but your options for exploring are limited during the workweek.

Explore the street foods

Thepprasit Road Night Market, also called Pattaya Weekend Market or Kankeha Thepprasit Market, is well known for its street food and specialities. A significant portion of the market is comprised of dessert and street food vendors. Some of the must-try dishes in this restaurant include sticky mango rice, chicken satay, roasted duck, and a variety of seafood options. When your partner is out shopping, you can find a comfortable place to sit thanks to the minibars and juice bars that are located inside the market. 

Buy souvenirs

If you think you're good at bargaining, the weekend market is also one of the best places to practice your negotiating techniques. Products like clothing, electronics, home appliances, and traditional Thai souvenirs are available at the Thepprasit night market. Going there with locals or knowing a little bit of Thai is one of the best ways to get amazing deals here. Along with offering more affordable options, the majority of these products are trustworthy, which is why you'll see more locals here in addition to tourists.

These are some of the best things to do in Pattaya!

Kaan Show Pattaya

The Kaan show, which is just two kilometers from the weekend market, is the ideal fusion of live art, cinema, stage performance, and cutting-edge technologies. A fascinating experience is provided to the audience when Kaan Show premieres at Singha D'Luck Cinematic Theatre. The show typically lasts 70 minutes, and its tales are drawn from traditional Thai folktales. The experience would not be impacted by the language barrier because this is a non-verbal art form.

Big Buddha temple

The Big Buddha Temple is a fascinating tourist attraction in Pattaya. On Pratumnak Mountain, a 120-meter-tall statue of the Buddha can be found. The centerpiece of the shrine is an 18-meter-tall golden Buddha that is surrounded by smaller Buddha statues. A few of the intriguing rituals performed here include counting the precise number of stairs steps to determine one's karma, throwing money into the belly of a fat Buddha statue to attract wealth, and ringing the bell to symbolize the purification of one's karma. The temple is 10 minutes away by car and is situated to the west of the night market.
