Hello, I am arriving in Bangkok on thursday and I was looking forward to going to the Chatuchak Weekend Market .... Does anyone know if this area has been affected by flooding? Have any areas in the main parts of Bangkok been affected... I'm staying at the The Westin Grande am i going to need to bring a canoe with me? haha

no not at this stage! should be okay, it is really if you are heading out to the northern suburbs or along the river bank you may be affected!

If you have never been there it is worth a look. Just be prepared it is vast and you can walk about for hours. Couple of tips if you see something you like buy it them as finding the stall again is bloody difficult/impossible. Use the BTS to get there but buy your return ticket when you arrive as the station is very busy when the market closes and all the ticket machine have long waits.
