Bangkok's biggest temple fair returns for a 10-day Songkran celebration

Still haven't sorted your Songkran plans? Wat That Thong has entered the chat.

The temple's beloved fair is back and it's teaming up with the Songkran festival for a proper 10-day celebration, running right through to April 15. There’s retro market vibes, classic street food, fairground rides and live music all rolled into one massive neighbourhood party.

The food situation alone is worth the trip. You'll find stalls piled high with traditional Thai sweets and all the savoury street food classics you could want. There's an old-school vibe going on with the retro market section, where vendors are selling everything from vintage finds to modern trinkets. 

Fancy a go on some temple fair-style rides? They've got those too. And there are photo spots dotted around if you're after some festival content, and live music to keep things buzzy throughout.

The fair sits right next to BTS Ekkamai, so you can hop off at Exit 3 and you're basically there. If you're taking the bus, anything running along Sukhumvit will drop you at the temple's doorstep.
