Just a quick bit on Chinatown, Soi Talat Kao
Some markets in Bangkok can be a bit tacky markets seen elsewhere but Talat Kao is a more sensual market and a great way to experience the more authentic side of Chinatown. Just like Talat Mai, it is mostly a food market with lots of fresh meat, fish, vegetables and fruits for sale. There are a variety of Chinese delicacies available and you can easily find dried abalone (shellfish), fried puffed up fish stomachs and steamed bird’s nests. If you’re inclined you can also purchase non-food products like ant-killer chalk, Chinese medicines and ginseng roots. Its name means Old Market, and is not an understatement, as it has been up and running since the late 18th century. Get up early as it closes down before the afternoon kicks in.
