'PHUKET Sunday Walking Street Market | THAI STREET FOOD In Phuket, Thailand Phuket Walking Street is a night market that takes over the beautiful Thalang Road in Phuket Old Town every Sunday evening. Also known as Lardyai (from the southern Thai dialect version of talaad yai, which means ‘big market’), Phuket Walking Street allows visitors to discover some typical southern Thai culinary specialties as well as local handicraft and gift stalls. This weekly event is definitely family-oriented with the presence of toy stalls as well as musical performances and other entertaining acts. The main entrance of Phuket Walking Street is on the eastern (Phuket Road) side of Thalang Road, at which a superb wooden Chinese-style gate is installed. The gate boasts a sign with \'Lardyai\' written in 3 languages (Thai, Chinese, and English) and is a popular photo op. The colorful Sino-Portuguese-style house facades are enhanced by the addition of color-changing lights, which also make a lovely backdrop. The 2 main items sold at Phuket Walking Street are food and souvenirs. Barbecued squid, chicken, and pork are certainly the favorite dishes if you consider the number of stands selling them. Fruit juices, ice creams, and Khanom (Thai traditional sweets) are also very popular. Some young Phuket entrepreneurs have started interesting T-shirt and handicraft businesses here, with shirts featuring stylized Sino-Portuguese architectural elements, knitted dolls, custom-made flip flops (customers pick the sole, top and decorative elements of their choice which are assembled on-site) and fancy jewelry, of which there is a good choice of cool and inexpensive items to browse through. =========================================== Subscribe for bangkokandmore: https://goo.gl/ixAIuR =========================================== Location on Google Maps: https://goo.gl/maps/y7UpEQVCpqECRy428 #bangkokandmore'
