JJ Market
















JJ Market or Jatujak Sunday Market is of course very very well known to tourist for its varieties in products. You can find everything here T-shirt, Food, Handicraft, Plants, Pets, Armour etc.
This place is very popular among teenager too, but the weather can sometime be a problem (its too HOT)... but during December when the weather is a little COOL, that is the best time to go there!

If you want to go to JJ Market by BTS Skytrain then you can get off at Mo Chit Station and get down at Exit#1 (that will be the closest)

Central Department Store-Childrom Branch














If you want to as me about Shopping for quality things with grade service I would recommend you Central Chidlom branch.
Since I can remember Central was there! My family and I often go to Central Chidlom branch almost every week even for just window shopping (sometimes). Because I am a Platinum member card therefore i will get like 10% discount for almost every item and many more benefits......but ya that isn't the point! The point that I recommend you Central Chidlom branch is that once my Dad brought a shoes from Central Chidlom branch and after using for a while it broke!..... and so my dad went to the store for a repair....the sales person at the shoes section said straight that he will give my dad a new one (it was of around the same price) free of charge too!.... from then on... there is no place other than Central Chidlom Branch.

If you want to go to Central Chidlom by BTS Sky Train then you can get down at Chidlom station and there is a connecting terminal from BTS Skytrain to the Store too.... Its very very easy to find!...
Their Telephone number is 662-27937000

Direction to Pinky Tailors Shop




















Walking from Exit #6 or Exit #2 shouldn't take more then 5 mins. If you see a big sign board saying Mahatun Plaza (like the picture shown above then you are on the right direction! What you have to do is just look left! and Pinky Tailors is infront of you!
While walking you can also look for Mr. Ottmar he is a very nice German guy and very well known among shops in Mahatun Plaza area! He is also a very nice friend of Mr. Pinky and might be able to give you some discount!
This is the only Tailor shop that I would recommend to you if you were to go to Bangkok for a Tailor made cloths. The owners name is Mr. Pinky, he is very friendly to all customer and the best thing is that he do not cheat on material like other so called "Tourist Tailor shop" in Thailand or the rest of the world (he has the most verity of material too, you can spend days in that place)! His price are also reasonable too "I am sure that Pinky Tailors will satisfy you cos if he can satisfy me then ofcourse everyone will"
ps: its a small shop located near Ploenchit BTS Station shouldn't be that hard to find!

If you want to go to "Pinky Tailors"
BTS Skytrain then when you reach Ploenchit BTS Station then you can either get down at Exit # 6 or Exit # 2.
or call Tel : 66 (0) 2 252-9680 (the address is 888/40 Ploenchit road, Bangkok, Thailand)
