Doing a little searching, it looks like there are several of these streetside markets in BKK.

I've been by the famed area, but have never actually walked through it.

@NightBazaar It's a relatively small area along one side of the road, normally quite busy on the weekends and only a few vendors present on week days.

@phrakanong Yes, I remember it as quite small, probably a weekday, with just a few vendors. It's well known for its amulets. I've meant to stop for a look, but never have. Interesting to see people examine these things, like jewelers with gemstones, to see if a piece is genuine or fake. My son-in-law has quite a collection of antique articles.

@NightBazaar A friend here sells the amulets on eBay and invited me to tag along with him that day. Prior to that I had only been by there during the week when there were not many vendors.
