Bangkok’s rich culture and vibrant atmosphere attract many Taiwanese travelers, especially as its creative industry experiences rapid growth. Recently, a one-of-a-kind airplane market called “ChangChui” has emerged in the Bangkok area, combining workshops, galleries, markets, restaurants, and even featuring an actual plane parked within the market. Its strong visual appeal has quickly made it a hot new topic in Thailand.

ChangChui Market brings together diverse elements, offering everything from bookstores, galleries, cinemas, live music venues, bars, hair salons, groceries, restaurants, coffee shops, and food streets. Each shop feels like a creative work of art. The market also features numerous large-scale installations, the most eye-catching being a retired plane from Thai Sky Airlines, which is repurposed and illuminated with colorful beams at night.
