Taling Chan; Bangkok floating market

Taling Chan is a small floating market found on the Western outskirts of Bangkok (Bangkok Noi) across the Pinklao bridge. Vendors on their boats sell vegetables, fruits and other ready to eat food. The food you buy from the boats you can consume right there on the floating restaurants.

It was really pleasant spending the afternoon at the floating market, you just forget the traffic and smog in the center of the city for a while. We had some food and drinks while listening to the Thai music and dancing.

You can also visit the area around the market by long tail boat.
We got there by taxi and and by the way you can also catch a bus from the center of Bangkok bus no.79. Next time I go I will take the Air conditioned bus there.

Here are some pictures.
