Rot Fai Train Night Market - ตลาดรถไฟ ศรีนครินทร์
Rot Fai Market (Train Market) in Bangkok is an authentic open-air bazaar selling an incredible array of vintage collectables and memorabilia from yesteryear, from antique furniture to hippy fashion and Mao kitsch.
It had been a long day (see vlogs 10 to 15) but that didn’t stop me from one more place to visit from my “to-do list”. I like to make the most of my time when in Thailand so going off the saying “no rest for the wicked” it was off to Rot Fai market on the evening of 22.11.15
Was a little bit further from the Nana/Sukhumvit area than I thought and my directions were a little off when I got there via BTS and taxi. I found out I could have actually used Udom Suk BTS station instead of On Nut And after trying to work out how to get around the shopping centre of the main road I got to the market at last.
All started well and at the start, there was little cafes, bars and stalls in the first section. The bars had some bands playing and there was a good vibe. Then as I started looking around I was a bit disappointed. It looked like any other normal market in Thailand with the usual stalls selling the same items. But as I wandered around after having a light meal at a street food stall I found the part of the market I had seen on the internet.
This was much more like it, vintage cars, motorbikes, lots of retro goods from the ’50s onwards.
Clothing, household items, electrical good, it’s all there. Well worth a visit and I would go again.
Lots of stalls and shops to choose from. The food hall as such is large with a big selection of foods for you to eat.
I came away very happy and pleased with my visit.

Note,
The directions I had said go to On Nut BTS and walk from there. When I got to On Nut I soon found out the directions were wrong. It’s better to go to Udom Suk BTS station and either walk or get a taxi from there as it is closer. Or just get a taxi the whole way.
