Highlights of Chang Chui Bangkok Plane Market

Chang Chui Bangkok Plane Market has 18 separate buildings made from recycled materials. Besides the generally cool, artistic vibe, you can enjoy a wide selection of food and craft beer, as well as shop for boutique fashion pieces.

The market’s main attraction is the shell of a Lockheed L-1011 Tristar aeroplane. There are plenty of unique art sculptures that make for excellent photos. Families can enjoy slides, treehouses and swings scattered throughout the market.

A food pavilion serves Asian and international street food such as fresh oysters, sushi, pizza, ramen, and som tum (papaya salad). Towards the back of the market is a row of bars serving cold beers and cocktails.

Chang Chui Bangkok Plane Market has 2 spaces for live performances, usually acoustic and jazz music playing throughout the night. The entire area is pet-friendly, so you’ll see many people with their dogs in the early evenings.
