The main part of the market is alongside a waterway surrounded by classic Thai-style stilt houses. There are about 50 boats on the lake selling food and drinks, and about 200 shops are in the market. Overall, the feel of the place is quite touristy with all the usual gift items, however it does have a genuin Thai feel to it with regards food and ambience.
You will find several boat noodles stores here since Ayutthaya is famous for it. There are also plenty of river prawns and sea food available. Oh! and of course Roti Sai Mai (โรตีสายไหม) or Thai style cotton candy which is the signature sweet of Ayutthaya.
