The Chatuchak Weekend Market is also known as JJ Markets in Bangkok it has more than 15,000 stalls and 11,505 vendors, divided into 27 sections so it's easy to get lost and find yourself going around i circles.

The Thai Farmers really have pride in their fruit farms they like to compete with each other to see who can grow the biggest and most tastiest fruit or veggie as you can see with there watermelons and pumpkins.

And then maybe another piece of fruit to wash that down how about a nice juicy plum or a peach or maybe some long black sweet grapes.
