Market Festival 48 Rai

Post by buksida »

From April 1st to the 11th there is a large market-type festival on the 48rai area along the canal road.

Hundreds of stalls selling local goods, hoards of food vendors, stage shows and fairground attractions. It looks like quite a large event and will be on for a week or so.

Ohhh Man Buksida!!!

I wish I could be there in Hua Hin now to go to this festival type of Fun!!! I cna Imagine hords of Stamford, Webster, Silipakorn and other Univ.studs will be there for sure!!!
Darn instead of doing research in the cold of the bay area (later on in central Calif. and by this wekend in Sin City, Las vegas where Property prices had plummeted over 20% last year) I would rather be in Chill in the sizzling Heat thai!an @ nite be there @ Market Festival on 48 Rai!

Look for soi 42 and 44 on the Hua Hin map go to the end of them through the wooded area and 48 rai is that expanse of land (you can't actually get there that way though, you need to head north alond the canal road).

There is a music concert there tomorrow night apparently, will post some pics if I go.

Is this the market that is replacing the traditional Naebkehardt farce????
