Pahurat (Little India)
Pahurat (Little India)
Technically not a night market, but Little India functions as one after 6 PM when Indian restaurants fill with aroma and fabric shops close for the day.
This is Bangkok's Indian district—colorful textiles, aromatic cuisine, and culture that feels transported from Delhi.
The food is authentically Indian prepared by Indian families who've lived in Bangkok for generations. Samosas, biryani, tandoori, curries that don't compromise spice for Thai palates. It's adjacent to Chinatown, creating this cultural border crossing you can walk in two minutes.
Monika's Tip
The samosa vendor on the corner of Chakraphet Road makes them fresh every 30 minutes—crispy, hot, ฿15 each. Buy four, get the tamarind chutney, and eat them on the walk to your next destination."
