W Market in Phra Khanong area

[gejohesch]

A few years back, I used to meet a group of friendly people in an open air area somewhere towards the Phra Khanong BTS station (I think), just 1 or 2 minutes walk from the station. I believe it's the W Market I can see on google map; Does anyone know about it? Is it still "alive"?

Thanks. Is it still a nice place to go in the late afternoon / early evening? It used to be quite a vibrant place some 10 years ago.

It's called W district.

It's not a market,  it's a farang-oriented collection of restaurants, bars and beer gardens.

It hasn't changed much over the years.
