Located near the Chao Phraya River, the market spans several blocks, with countless vendors selling flowers, fruits, and vegetables. You don’t need to buy anything to enjoy the experience, but small purchases like garlands cost as little as 20–50 THB.

Things to Know Before You Go
Comfortable walking shoes are a must, as you’ll be navigating narrow, bustling alleys. Bring cash, as most vendors don’t accept credit cards. The market can be humid, so stay hydrated. Photography is welcome, but be respectful of vendors and avoid blocking pathways. While it’s a self-guided experience, a tour guide can provide insight into the cultural and religious significance of the flowers.
How to Get There
The flower market is conveniently located near the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok’s Old City. Take a ferry to Saphan Phut Pier or Memorial Bridge Pier, both within walking distance. Alternatively, use the MRT Blue Line to Sanam Chai Station and walk or take a short tuk-tuk ride. Taxis and ride-hailing apps like Grab are also convenient options.
When to Get There
Visit Pak Khlong Talad early in the morning (4:00–6:00 AM) to witness the arrival of fresh flowers and the lively hustle of vendors. Late-night visits (after 10:00 PM) offer a quieter experience with vendors preparing for the next day. The cool season from November to February is the most comfortable time to explore outdoor markets in Bangkok.
Day Trips from Bangkok
Combine a visit to the flower market with nearby attractions for a full day of cultural exploration. Start at the Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew, then walk to Wat Pho (Temple of the Reclining Buddha). Afterward, head to Pak Khlong Talad to experience the vibrant flower market. End your day with a sunset stroll along the Chao Phraya River or a dinner cruise to soak in Bangkok’s illuminated skyline.
