Rong Kluea Market
What: The immense second-handed center where most items were imported from Cambodia or those who abdicated their unwanted stuff welcomes load of shoppers from all over Thailand, especially Bangkokians. Don’t forget to bring an umbrella and sunproof, for it is blazing hot! If possible, also bring a face make to protect the dust and unpleasant smell.
When: Sat-Sun, 7am-5pm.
Where: Aranyaprathet District, Sa Kaeo
How: There are a number of buses going to the merket every day. Try saerching on Google. It’s easy to find.
Why: The items here are surprisingly cheap. But you need eagle eyes to pick the good-conditioned item from a pile of used stuff.

Nakhon Nueng Khet Market
What: The recently relaunched market, Nakhon Nueng Ket Market, is revived after its speepy atmosphere thanks to the advent of the road. Despite a massive revamp, the market still retains its charm which is scarce in modernized city.
When: On weekends, 9am – 4pm.
Where: Chachoengsao
How: Take the Suwintawong Rd. (Route 304) and you will be directed by the signs for 20 kilometers, more or less.
Why: The market is really in a good shape. The quaint wooden houses and people’s way of life greatly reflect the trace of ancient community.
