Mooncake and Vegetarian Festival around Pratunam

Although the Mooncake and Vegetarian Festivals occur all over Thailand during the month of September, there are few places better to celebrate than Bangkok. The choice of venues for both festivals is almost infinite, but among the most celebrated area for the festivals is Bangkok's Chinatown on Yaowarat Road. If the thing you are looking forward to most is the Mooncakes, you will be spoiled for choice. The Mooncake Festival is the time when these delicious cakes are sold virtually everywhere, but Yaowarat Road has more choices than most. Another option if you prefer air-conditioned comfort is Central World, which traditionally marks both the Mooncake Festival and the Vegetarian Festival in style.

But this month isn't all about Mooncakes, it's also the Vegetarian Festival. Take your pick from literally thousands of vegetarian treats, some of which you will have never tasted before! Again, Yaowarat Road is the place to be for this festival, where the whole area transforms into one of the biggest vegetarian food markets in the world! Although many restaurants in the area will feature a comprehensive vegetarian menu, it's the homemade snacks sold by local people that will give you a true taste of the festival.
