Mahachai Market is one of the biggest fresh seafood markets in Thailand. It is located in Samut Sakhon, between the Khlong Mahachai canal and the Mahachai Railway Station. The confluence of the Khlong Mahachai and the Tha Chin River is just a short walking distance away, as is the City Pillar Shrine.
In addition to fish, Mahachai Market has much more to offer. Basically, it is a regular Thai market, but on a big scale. You can find food, furniture, just about anything you would expect to find at the market. You are also likely to find rather exotic items such as frogs and insects on sale at this market.
