Though Owl Market is located outside the Bangkok city centre in the Nonthaburi area, it’s worth the trip down especially if you want to beat the tourist crowd and enjoy more affordable (read: non-touristy) prices. Plus, the market is easily accessible from the Yaek Nonthaburi 1 train station (Purple Line), located just a short few minutes drive/car ride away.

The Owl Market is also semi-indoors, with most stalls providing shelter, so you won’t have to worry about rainy weather! There’s plenty of retail and second-hand clothing to shop for both men and women, with items priced super affordably starting from just 20 baht (~$0.75 SGD) each! You’ll also find unique and quirky items like handicrafts, home decor, vintage goods, books, plants and other hidden gems you probably won’t find elsewhere.
