Chatuchak Weekend Market

Whenever we are in BKK, Chatuchak Weekend Market is a place we must visit over the weekend. For me, it is to shop for spices. This round we nearly couldn't find the stall, thankfully we found it after walking for over half an hour. There were more stalls of clothes. We really had fun shopping and bargaining.
