Saphan Phut Night Bazaar  Opposite and adjacent to Memorial Bridge, known as Memorial bridge markets or Saphan Put Market (Saphan is Thai for "bridge"). This night bazaar swarms with a younger local crowd, with secondhand items and cheap price tags that appeal to pre-workforce shoppers. Bargain shopping, but as it's focused for locals it's not tourist friendly in terms of signage. A variety of goods and services tempt the predominantly university student shoppers, from hookahs to handbags, tattoos to T-shirts. The area under the bridge is a popular spot for local teenagers to hang out riverside, and caricaturists are often found sketching for a small fee. One of the best snacks here is the squid eggs, served in a styrofoam bowl on a bed of raw veggies. Stairs leading up to the bridge give you a nice view of the Chao Phraya River, and its proximity to the flower market makes which is quite a sight with several streets lined with fresh flowers of every description, this in itself is a worthwhile journey.
