The 10 Best Markets in Korat, Ranked
This lot is dominated by everyday city-center markets, split between night markets that fire up around teatime and daytime ones like Mae Kim Heng and Therdthai Talkoo that run from dawn. SaveOne Night Market tops it, and it's open all week, so it's the safe bet on any given evening. Only Phimai Night Bazaar takes you out of town.
