Oh Poi Market Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
Best Green Local Market | Ratchaburi
A local market, run by Ethnic Karen. Not many foreign tourists but certainly a favourite among the Thai people. This market is an ideal place for a morning stroll. The food in the market is reasonably priced, ranging from 20 to 50 baht. Additionally, there is a religious activity for Buddhists to participate in called "sai baht" (making merit). The activity usually starts around 7:30 am.
Didn’t expect much but we were completely stunned how things were organized here. There is entrance fee, no parking fee. Food and drinks were cheap and all shops aimed to use as little to no plastic and be as eco-friendly as possible which I LOVED and truly admired. We been to many green local market, big ones including the famous Jing Jai Maket in Chiangmai but I must say this one is truly GREEN. There was almost zero plastic 💚 All packaging were natural, bamboo, banana leaves, etc.Almost all of the shops willingly wanted to take the garbage or food waste just to keep the whole market clean. Trash bins were clearly labled. Impressive to see how the comunity works together to bring out the best.
Never imagined that the market by local people in the community can create such a wonderful place in the natural atmosphere. Must to visit place of Rachaburi !
