Shopping for Scarves at Chatuchak Weekend Market: A Visitor's Guide
Chatuchak Weekend Market is one of the best places in Bangkok to shop for scarves. Here is a short guide to finding a scarf you will love, plus where to find our shops.
Why a scarf is a great Bangkok souvenir
Light and easy to pack – nothing to break in your suitcase
Useful on the trip: covers your shoulders for temple visits and keeps you warm in air-conditioned places
Easy to buy several as gifts for family and friends
Getting to Chatuchak
Take the BTS Skytrain to Mo Chit, or the MRT to Chatuchak Park or Kamphaeng Phet. The market is busiest at weekends, so come in the morning when it is cooler and less crowded.
Tips for choosing a scarf
Look at the full print. Ask to open the scarf so you can see the whole design, not just a fold.
Pick the right size. A large square scarf (around 130 x 130 cm) works as a shawl, a neck scarf or a cover-up.
Match your travel outfits. Bright prints photograph well; navy, white and cream go with everything.
Buying gifts? Choose a mix of colours so everyone can pick a favourite.
