The Chatuchak market

Insane awesome market spanning city blocks, With row upon row of crowded stalls. Thus far we've actually stayed off the beaten path as much as one can in Bangkok. However the market is a major tourist destination. Gangna style t shirts and puppies seem to be a current trend. My favorite part was bartering. There are no prices on anything, of course. The woman hands you your pants and types $180 baht in to her calcuator. I grab the calculator and type $100. She laughs and says no, typing in a price she thinks you'll go for. This goes on until both parties are satisfied. You must do this with everything here.
