Set up along a train track, a visit to this unique market is worthwhile. Shopkeepers build makeshift stalls on the railway lines and remove them with the same agility, after the toy train arrives to traverse the Batasia loop. The market is a small collection of street shops that sell typical touristy souvenirs, bags, decorative items and woollen clothes. Make sure you schedule your visit around the toy train’s arrival to witness how swiftly the locals manage to fold and unfold the market. Do not forget to bargain well.
