My top pick for a day excursion to a Bangkok floating market is the Kwan-Riam Floating Market. You can find this floating market in Bangkok on Soi Ramkhamhaeng 185, Ramkhamhaeng Road, Min Buri Subdistrict, Min Buri District. Opening times are 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. An important landmark is the bridge that spans the water between Wat Bamphen Nuea Seri Thai 60 and Wat Bang Peng Tai, Ramkhamhaeng 18, as well as the bridge that connects Wat Bampen Nuea and Wat Bang Peng Tai by boat. This floating market was inspired by the idea of recreating the riverside lifestyle of villagers along the Saen Saeb Canal so that it could serve as a teaching tool for future generations.
The tiny farms where horses, goats, flamingos, ducks, and swans can be fed just outside the entrance to the Kwan-Riam Floating Market are another feature that makes this floating market special.
Fresh Thong Muan, Khanom Bueng, Ancient Cha Chak, and Trang roasted pork are just some of the delectable foods you can sample, and there are lots of other things you can buy and bring back as mementos from the market. The restaurants have all kinds of delicious food. Additionally, it offers numerous fashionable souvenirs, including OTOP goods, to the delight of shoppers.
And I’ll give you one last local stop before you head home: the Kwan-Riam Shrine, where the legendary canal known as Khlong Saen Saep is said to have originated. This shrine is located on the opposite side of the market, on the side of Wat Bang Peng Tai. Worshippers gather to pay their respects and offer prayers for happiness in all areas of their lives, including professional and romantic endeavors, as well as their general well-being.
