“Taling Chan Floating Market is one of the few authentic floating markets in Bangkok, featuring boat-based food vendors, Thai-style wooden walkways, and relaxing canal tour experiences.”

Taling Chan Floating Market is one of the most accessible and charming floating markets in Bangkok, located in the Taling Chan district just a short drive from the city center. Open only on weekends and public holidays, it provides visitors with an authentic glimpse into Thai riverside life, combined with local flavors and cultural charm.

The highlight of the market is its boat vendors lining the canal, where vendors sell freshly prepared Thai dishes from traditional longtail boats. Visitors can sit on floating wooden rafts by the canal and enjoy favorites like boat noodles, fried mussels, grilled seafood, mango sticky rice, Thai sweets, and much more.

Aside from food, there is a lively land-based section with stalls selling handmade crafts, local produce, potted plants, herbs, and traditional Thai souvenirs. The market is known for supporting small local farmers and artisans.

One of the most popular activities here is the longtail boat tour, which takes visitors through peaceful canals and past riverside homes, fruit orchards, orchid farms, and local temples. These tours usually last 1–2 hours and provide a relaxing, immersive experience into Bangkok’s traditional waterway culture.

The market atmosphere is friendly and casual, with occasional live music from local youth bands and street performers, adding to the vibrant yet laid-back charm.


How to Get There
  • By Public Transport: Take bus numbers 79, 146, or 511. Get off near the market entrance and walk about 5 minutes.
