Pattaya Mayor Itthiphol Kunplome kicked off the annual
transformation of the Old Naklua Market into a new “Walking Street”
tourist attraction for the high season.
The mayor and Tourism Authority of Thailand Pattaya Director Auttaphol
Wannakij welcomed large crowds of mostly Thai residents and tourists to
“Yesterday’s Naklua” between Lan Po Market and the Yao Bridge Nov. 24.
Seafood vendors dominated the market, offering shrimp, octopus, oysters,
crab and fish to be grilled and eaten on site or taken home. Other
stalls offered pork, duck, chicken, other fowl and accompanying
vegetables suitable for making “somtam.”
Long a project of the mayor, the market is aimed at highlighting
historical culture and products in the Naklua area.
Opening night featured live Thai-music performances and 11 Muay Thai
boxing matches organized by City Councilman Nakhon Phonlookin.
Naklua Walking Street market is open Saturday and Sunday nights from
17.00-22.00 p.m. every week through Jan. 12, 2014.
