Naka Weekend market, Phuket

Naka Weekend Market, located in Phuket Town along Wirat Hong Yok Road, is a must-visit destination for shoppers and foodies alike. The market, which spans a large area, is open on Fridays to Sundays from 4pm to 11pm. Visitors can enjoy a wide variety of food stalls, ranging from local style to Japanese style and western style. The market is also home to an array of clothing and accessory stalls, which are well separated from the food zone.

The market is divided into covered and uncovered sections, with most clothing inside and street food outside. As the single biggest night market on the island, Phuket Weekend Market can be overwhelming for first-time visitors. To make the most of your visit, consider taking an evening tour of Phuket, which will not only cover the market but also other island highlights such as the Big Buddha and the Promthep Cape, a prime sunset spot. The tours typically include a guide who can help you navigate the market and overcome any language barriers, allowing you to discover snacks and souvenirs that you may otherwise overlook.
