On my very last day in Bangkok, I decided to go to Chatuchak. It was a weekday.
Many might thought that they will be closed on weekdays, well its not all that. Some or most shops are still open on weekdays.
I went to the paintings section and there were lots of impressive painting. I wished I could drive all the way up and bought all those stuffs. Just to let you know, my parents drove to Bangkok before, in fact to Chiang Mai also.
There were lots of plants displayed on that day. I saw lots of pick up trucks carrying plants, maybe there were from outstation or other areas of Thailand?
Transportation was not an issue in Chatuchak. Taxis and even tuk-tuk were on standby if you need them!
In case, you couldn't take back the stuffs you bought. There's a few courier companies there can do the job.Chatuchak can be accessible by BTS Sky Train (right to the front of the market! Very convenient) or taxis. Taxis are everywhere in Bangkok.

They're open on weekdays? Ooo baju section buka tak? :P
electronicfly: i wished i could answer your question on that. However, I didn't walk thru all the sections.
HOWEVER, theres a mall by the name of JJ Mall beside Chatuchak (air conditioned) sell baju....
Second choice will be Platinum Mall...
