Wang Huhuichong from Bangkok recently visited this night market, but he didn’t expect all the vendors to be seen. The signboards were left behind and a large open space was facing away. In the past, he relied heavily on foreign tourists for inbound tourism consumption. The number of people in a year can reach 3,400 million. It’s not just the aviation industry and travel agencies that are affected. It’s really sad that the surrounding services of tourism have been affected. There is also a kind of sorrow of not knowing when the prosperity will be restored. The vaccine in 2021 represents the key to restarting tourism. We can only pray for it. The year goes well.

Conclusion
Just like the roadside vendors in Bangkok, with the rapid development of Bangkok, the living space of the Bangkok night market in the city center is getting narrower and narrower, and it can only be moved to the suburbs one after another.As far as the tourist night market is concerned, Ratchada Train Night Market can be said to be the most convenient night market. However, the neon night market adjacent to Pratunam Market, even if it is a short distance from the MRT station and the stalls are limited, but the surrounding area is a must for tourists. The department stores, wholesale markets, exchange offices, and Erawan Buddhas visited are very suitable to be interspersed in the itinerary of downtown Siam.
