Phra Tabong Phra Tabong Fresh Market

Unlike other markets that start early at dawn, this market begins around 9 AM. The market's charm lies in the locals selling fish in abundance. They place fresh fish on banana leaves; the fish are alive but here they do not put them in water, allowing them to breathe on the banana leaves. Khmer people also come to browse and buy. Some fish species seen here are rare in Thailand.

In Phra Tabong, there are two markets: the old market and the new market. The new market is next to the Phra Tabong Bus Station and has many general dry goods shops. I prefer the old market because it looks more traditional. In the market, you can still see various types of fermented fish sauces, many more than the few types I have seen in Thailand. mr.hotsia December 2011 Phra Tabong Morning Market Old Market Video of Phra Tabong Market at Dusk 13 6 8.843 N, 103 11 52.686 E GPS Coordinates (POI) 13 6 5.189 N, 103 11 50.285 E From Haon to the front of Phra Tabong Fresh Market
