Market Places in Pattaya

There are many bazaar-style markets in Pattaya where you can haggle ’till you drop, including…

Thepprasit Market on Thepprasit Road near the junction with Sukhumvit Road – Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings.

Soi Buakhao Market on the corner of South Pattaya Road and Soi Buakhao, across from the Friendship supermarket – daytime, Tuesday and Friday; plus an evening market further along the same road.
Made In Thailand Night Plazar (sic) on Second Road near Soi 10 – daily 08:00-23:00 (despite the name).

The Market Pattaya on Second Road near Soi 5 is a little lonely but some evenings has students giving music or dance performances on a small stage.

…any many more, including one on Second Road near Soi 2, next to Tiffany’s Show.

Shopping Mall in Pattaya

Central Festival Centre is a large mall on Second Road across from Soi 2. It includes the Big-C department store, and an IT Corner with mobile phones and accessories but no computers.

Mike Shopping Mall is on Beach Road between Soi 11 and Soi 12, with another entrance on Second Road, and opens 11:00-23:00. The ground floor has many small stalls selling clothing, tourist souvenirs and many other inexpensive items; above that there’s a department store; on the 5th floor there’s a food court; and up on the roof (10th floor) there’s a public swimming pool.

P.S. Plaza is at the junction of Second Road and Central Pattaya Road – Tops supermarket occupies most of the ground floor; billiards, books, massage, and a handful of other shops on the first floor; and P.S. Bowling on the second floor.

Royal Garden Plaza is a large upscale mall adjacent to the Pattaya Marriott Hotel on Beach Road between Soi Post Office (Soi 13/2) and Soi Pattayaland 1 (Soi 13/3), with another entrance on Second Road (just look for Ripley’s aeroplane).

Tuk.Com (Com City) on South Pattaya Road is a new and predominantly IT mall. In the basement is a Tops supermarket, a food court, and various other (mostly clothes) shops as well as a spare parts department that sells a variety of electronic (e.g. transistors) and other parts (e.g. clothes washing machine lint filters), and the ground floor hosts an assortment of regular shops. However the upper floors are almost exclusively mobile phones (1st floor), computer software and MP3/video CDs (4th floor), and computers and handheld electronics (2nd/3rd/5th floors). Prices are significantly higher than in Bangkok.
