100 Year Baan Mai Market (using the name of Ban Mai Subdistrict) is the market located along the Bang Pakong River. It is a famous antique market in Chachoengsao province that shouldn't be missed when visiting the province. 100 Year Baan Mai Market is the place where you will see the old houses and waterfront community as well as will enjoy shopping for local products and eating lots of delicious food.

100 Year Baan Mai Market is located along the Bang Pakong River. As 100 Year Baan Mai Market is a waterfront market, people can reach the market both by land and water. Even if you have no private car, reaching 100 Year Baan Mai Market is convenient as you can take songtaew from the bus station or train station to the market.

100 Year Baan Mai Market has a genuine atmosphere because it is set up in an ancient Thai-Chinese community that has been in existence for more than 100 years. The market is not like the floating markets in the central region where vendors are selling stuff from the boats. The stalls here are set up on land alongside the path running between rows of wooden houses adjacent to each other in a small community. 100 Year Baan Mai Market is mostly visited by locals and not many tourists can be spotted here, that gives the market more of an authentic feel.

It is a small market as the length of it is just 200 - 300 meters. The charm here is a truly ancient market and the traditional waterfront community. This area overall is still being well preserved. It is believed that the Ban Mai market community has existed since the reign of King Rama III and has been the main commercial center along the waterway routes.

100 Year Baan Mai Market in Chachoengsao is open on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays, from 08:30 to 17:00.

The market is a lot of fun. It’s a bit outside of Bangkok but if you are nearby stop and check it out.
