Will Liabduan Danneramit Night Market Finally Bring Life to This Storied Spot?

This particular plot of land seems to carry a curious history of ambitious ventures, some of which were ultimately short-lived. Before becoming a night market hotspot, it was home to Dan Neramit (Magic Land), Thailand’s very first amusement park. From 1976 to 2000, its iconic fairy-tale Sleeping Beauty castle stood as a beloved landmark, a silent sentinel to decades of entertainment. Though the park’s lease expired, leading its owner to focus on Dream World, the distinctive castle still stands today, overlooking its new incarnation.

More recently, the grounds were occupied by the much-hyped Train Market Jodd Fairs DanNeramit Night Market. While a typical iteration of the popular Jodd Fairs chain, my two visits revealed a limited appeal. Its offerings felt primarily food-focused, with very little in the way of compelling shopping. For me, it simply didn’t thrive enough to warrant repeat visits.

Now, the torch has been passed to Liabduan Danneramit Night Market (ตลาดนัดเลียบด่วนแดนเนรมิต), which officially opened in late May 2025. This new venture is operated by the same team behind the consistently successful Liabduan market (ตลาดนัดเลียบด่วน), known for its affordable pricing and strong appeal to locals. My recent two visits suggest a significantly more promising future for this location. Unlike its predecessor, Liabduan Danneramit is already bustling and vibrant. It offers a well-rounded experience, striking a better balance between diverse food stalls, engaging shopping opportunities, and lively entertainment. I even spotted two different areas featuring live, albeit amateur, singing performances – and remarkably, people were genuinely enjoying them.

Open daily from 4 PM to 12 Midnight, Liabduan Danneramit is also a great spot to kill time if you’re waiting for the famously long queues at Suki Teenoi, which is conveniently located just opposite the night market. You can read more about our Suki Teenoi experience [here]. Otherwise, the night market itself boasts an abundance of food options, with the 20-baht “yum” (Thai salad) place being particularly crowded – a testament to its popularity and value!

It seems Liabduan might just have found the winning formula to make this storied spot truly thrive, turning its magical past into a vibrant present.

Not Your Typical Tourist

Travel opens up a whole new world, which is cliche but true. I am a strong advocate for independent and solo travel. I was born and raised in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia but now live in Bangkok, Thailand, resulted from a chance encounter in 2009 with my why-are-you-Thai bf. I am now split between two countries. One country for my bf, another for the family, for the occasional weekend together.
