What it gives
Combine a meal with browsing small shops and historic streets; on Sunday, add the Thalang walking market.
What it costs
The walking market is a Sunday event, listed 16:00–22:00; a weekday evening needs a different plan. Hours are retained from the 2026-10-20 observation; the currently opened TAT page did not expose attraction text, so confirm market operation before setting out.

Why this radius: 300 m is an editorial overview of nearby streets around the preserved landmark. Basis: 3 distinct junctions at 134–186 m in the partial map dated 2026-10-21; add 100 m to the farthest, then round upward to 100 m. The circle may include buildings and private premises; it is not a district boundary, housing coverage or route time.
