Definitely one of the best clothing markets in Bangkok. There are a huge number of shops and you can find almost anything in your mind.
Some shops sell the basic clothing items while others have some custom desgins and garments. The best thing is that the prices are relatively cheap and you will find yourself leaving with a dozen of bags.
Recommended for buying souvenirs as well.

One-day tour of the famous Pratunam Market in downtown Bangkok, Thailand. Bangkok's most famous tourist market, suitable for leisure shopping, check-in and taking photos📸
#Bangkok Itinerary
Bangkok, Thailand is a world-famous tourist resort city. Every day, thousands of tourists come to Bangkok for sightseeing and vacation. Pratunam Market is a very famous tourist market and business district in Bangkok. This time we will introduce a one-day tour itinerary for Pratunam Market. The entire scenic spot is free to visit and take photos📸, no tickets are required.
Itinerary introduction: First take public transportation or a taxi to Indra Square Pratunam อินทราสแควร์ประตูน้ำ. As soon as you get off the bus, you will reach the most famous shopping mall in the Pratunam business district: Indra Square (อินทราสแควร์) and Thailand’s largest market: Pratunam Market. This is one of the best places to buy souvenirs and chocolates if you leave Thailand after your holiday. You can find a wide variety of products here, and the prices are usually cheaper than other markets. Bargaining is one option to lower the price of any product you buy, but most wholesale stores discourage it. It is recommended to check with multiple stores before purchasing a product because different stores sell the same product at different prices. You may find that some of the shops on the ground floor sell the same products as those on the first floor, and the prices may even be cheaper. By comparing prices across multiple stores, you can ensure you’re getting the best deal. If you plan on buying electronics, always check whether your flight allows you to take batteries in your checked luggage. If batteries are not allowed in checked baggage, you can pack them in the cabin or in your hand baggage. This is an important consideration to avoid any problems at the airport. Additional Info: Don’t plan to go to the shops in the evening as almost all the shops here close at 8pm. Allocate at least half a day to explore all the stores and another half a day for shopping. Keep in mind that you won't find any original branded products here; most of the items for sale are replicas, first editions, or unbranded items. Nonetheless, for visitors looking to bring home gifts and souvenirs, the wide variety and affordable prices make this a worthwhile shopping experience. There are many delicious restaurants and food stalls outside, and the food is very delicious. There is also a night market at the entrance at night, with more food vendors setting up stalls. You can really eat, drink and have fun all day long in the Pratunam Market business district.
