The nightlife in Bangkok, which is more beautiful at night, is believed to be a favorite of many people, but if you are a traveler who likes to get up early or spend time with your parents, in addition to getting up early to swim in the hotel or have a good breakfast, choose to go to the floating markets around Bangkok. I believe it can bring more surprises and changes to the itinerary. It is recommended to arrange at least one floating market to stroll around in the free itinerary in Bangkok.
Floating Market is pronounced in Thai as Talat (city) Nam (water). River irrigation is the basic condition for the development of a great city. With the evolution of the era when roads replace waterways and networks replace roads, the greater the role of waterways in sightseeing, Thailand's floating market is a combination of tourism and daily life, with slightly different proportions.
Next, provide the floating markets around Bangkok according to the distance and the classification of transportation. You can choose the suitable floating market according to the needs of your own itinerary, and intersperse the floating market itinerary in Bangkok. I believe it will be free. Travel experience is more abundant.
◎ Take public transportation and taxi to the floating market
The city of Bangkok is bordered by Nonthaburi in the north and Samut Prakan in the south. Even in Bangkok, where the traffic is the most convenient, the transportation to the various floating markets is not convenient. You usually have to take a bus or boat to get there.However, due to the low cost of taxis in Thailand, it is sometimes possible to take the MRT first and then call a taxi to go there.
☆ Bangkok City
In the highly urbanized downtown area of Bangkok, the living space of the floating market is quite limited. The Dalin River in the west is the most famous, and there is Khlong Lat Mayom next to it.In addition, Kwan-Riam, which opened in 2012, was initially planned to be a shopping mall for sightseeing, not a traditional floating market.
