Looking for a traditional floating market in Bangkok
Whilst Taling Chan floating market isn’t as well know as the famous Damnoen Saduak Floating Market it isn’t a tourist trap and it’s in Bangkok (unlike Damnoen Saduak) so it’s my favourite market and it’s where the locals go.
It is only open at weekends and public holidays. It is possible to get boat tours which also include a nice stop at a temple and an orchid farm which is really worth a look.
