Tha Sadet Market is a popular place to buy local products and souvenirs from Nong Khai province. It is located directly on the banks of the Mekong River.

Originally, this market was called Tha Ruea Market, as people on both sides of the Mekong River had to use boats to travel and trade before the construction of the Thai-Laotian Friendship Bridge. Therefore, this area was an important border crossing and a significant port.

Later in 1955, a severe flood occurred. His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej the Great and Her Majesty Queen Sirikit, the Queen Mother, traveled to Nong Khai province to visit the people affected by the flood and disembarked from the royal barge at the market pier. The "Tha Sadet Market" was later renamed in honor of His Majesty.

Opening hours: Tha Sadet Market is open daily, from approximately 7:00 AM to 6:30 PM. (Some sources state 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM.)

Location: Michai Road, Nai Mueang Subdistrict, Mueang District, Nong Khai Province
