About
Mae Kim Heng is a good old-city stop for breakfast, fresh ingredients and edible gifts to take home. Enter from Suranaree, Bua Rong or Pho Klang Road and follow the stalls selling cooked food, vegetables, dried goods and flowers. It fits neatly into a city walk, and gives you a practical taste of Korat's everyday shopping rather than a purpose-built tourist market.
Why go
- Three street entrances make it easy to include in an old-city walk.
- Prepared food and fresh ingredients serve both a quick meal and a shopping trip.
- Dried foods and Korat noodles give you edible souvenir options.
- The flower sellers add another side to the market beyond food.
Know before you go
- Come in the morning if breakfast is your main reason for visiting.
- Remember which entrance you used before wandering into the central aisles.
- Ask how to store cooked food and local products if you are taking them on a long journey.
- Use the market's schedule as a guide, because each stall can open and close separately.
