Thailand's Central Thailand
Chanthaburi
Just beyond the city limits of Ayuthaya find a gemstone enthusiast’s paradise at Chanthaburi. Each weekend unveils a massive congregation of gemstone merchants traveling from as far as Myanmar, Malaysia and Cambodia to offer their precious stones at this lively Chanthaburi Market.
For a more amphibious market experience, browse the flat-bottomed punts of the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market on the waters of the Khlong River where merchants donned in wide brimmed hats offer diverse treasures of every kind within this Venice of the East.
