A lively night market that is the perfect embodiment of the exotic vibes of Phuket, Chillva has everything from latest fashion to delicious food. This flea market has some wonderful and reasonably priced shoes, t-shirts, sunglasses and handmade cosmetics along with quirky bars, classy coffee shops and fantastic ice-cream parlours. Food trucks selling delicious local fare like sausages and fried insects are equally great. While pristine white tents form most of the market, there are numerous clothing boutiques that are housed inside recycled containers. These amplify the exclusive nature of the address.
Occupying some 6500 sq m of retail space, Chillva Market also has an amphitheater that regularly witnesses live music performances. A great place to meet young locals and relax after a long day of sightseeing, it pops up beside Yaowarat Road and is not very far from a Tesco Lotus outlet. Chillva is colourful, dynamic and downright refreshing and a visit is totally warranted. Go during the weekends so as to see the entire market in action.
