The sound of a cock crowing signals the start of the day as hundreds of sellers raise their colourful umbrellas and stock their booths with a variety of fresh vegetables, fruits and meats from local farms.
Stretching between Panich Charoen, Surin Ruechai and Matayawong roads, this market portrays local life and is the best spot to sample delightful Phetchaburi-style cuisine, recognised for its distinctive specialities created from jaggery palm sugar. Last year, Unesco Creative Cities Network added Phetchaburi to its City of Gastronomy list.
