yeah been there a few times and enjoyed it ....

nobody keeps nostalgia anymore ....   knock it down and lets put up a high rise and concrete the ground floor,  then we'll up the rent and eventually all market shops will leave and they'll be no Ben Thanh markets any more...  same as many have disappeared in Bangkok ....  greed.
