Pattaya City in association with the Tourism Authority of Thailand Pattaya Office invites both Thai and foreigners to experience the traditional lifestyle of the rural Thai people of over 100 years ago which has been brought back to life at Naklua's ‘Old Town’.
There are many booths selling seafood, ancient drinks, traditional Thai products as well as many other entertaining activities. It is open every Saturday and Sunday and will run from now until February of next year.
Pattaya Mayor Itthiphol Kunplome who officially opened the market said, “Not only is Pattaya equipped with a beautiful beach that is popular among tourists, Naklua is also a well known destination that is famous for the traditional lifestyle that the people here still maintain. If you look around you can still see old style housing made from wood. The food that is sold here is mostly traditional Thai food with authentic flavors. We decided to generate more income for the people in this area by making this area a tourist destination under the theme ‘100 Years Market’ at Naklua ‘Old Town’. Apart from the good food, hand-made souvenirs, there are also other interesting activities like portrait drawing and many more that reflects to rural life.”
