Bangkok's weekend market Chatuchuck has to be the mother of all markets. If you've seen an Asian market just visualize one that is exceptionally large. If you haven't try to picture 5 foot wide walks between stalls, many of which are 8'X10', covered by a tin roof, selling everything from silk to pets, that covers the area of a county fairground.
Chatuchuck is certainly an interesting part of the circus. I don't think I've been so hot since I shoveled out a steel grain bin under an August sun. To avoid the highest heat I went first thing in the morning and left before the heat peaked.
