Bobae Market

This is where the wholesale myth becomes reality.

For 30+ years, Bobae has been Bangkok's cheapest clothing source—the place where even Pratunam vendors come to buy stock. Plain t-shirts for ฿20-45 baht in bulk. Elephant pants for ฿70 (versus ฿150 in tourist areas). Kids' clothes that Bangkok mothers buy by the dozen.

Bobae Tower houses 1,300+ stalls across six air-conditioned floors. The ground level chaos transitions to organized wholesale on upper floors. The hook? Forty percent of the entire complex is dedicated to children's and baby clothes—the largest kids' wholesale market in Thailand.

Monika's Tip

Take the canal boat to Bobae pier—it's ฿15 and you avoid traffic completely. Plus the boat ride through old Bangkok is an experience itself.
