Talingchan Floating Market, Bangkok

It is located in front of the Taling Chan District Office and is a semi-rural floating market that perfectly combines waterfront life with nature. It is also called Khlong Chak Phra, and there are outstanding products like no other place, e.g., various food, fruit and vegetables, and ornamental plants that local gardeners bring and sell by themselves. The interesting aspect is preserving and conveying the beautiful way of life of the agriculturists along the canal. The vendors rowing boats sell food and fruit around the pontoon and along the canal. There are also handicrafts with good craftsmanship from local wisdom, as well as marine tourism activities. By taking a long-tail boat, experience the atmosphere on both sides of Khlong Taling Chan and take a cruise to a nearby floating market, e.g., Khlong Lat Mayom Floating Market and Wat Bang Saphan Floating Market. Open weekends and public holidays 07.00 – 17.00 hrs. For further details Tel. 08 9205 7532, or The Taling Chan District Office Tel. 0 2424 1742, 0 2424 5448.
