Shopping in Bangkok is one of the things the city does best, right alongside munching on delicious eats, but we can\u2019t give all the credit to the big-name malls. The Thai capital also has heaps of flea markets that offer much more than clothes and food. Think vintage treasures, flowers, toys and all sorts of unique finds. It is also a kid friendly way for little ones to explore things they won\u2019t usually see on regular store shelves. To make your treasure hunt a little easier, we\u2019ve done the rounding up for you with our list of flea markets in Bangkok.<\/p>\n

Families can enjoy affordable Thai street food such as coconut ice cream, mango sticky rice, grilled seafood and fresh fruit. Or cool off in one of the air-conditioned cafes scattered throughout.
