Taling Chan, District and floating market in western Bangkok, Thailand
The district spans 29.479 square kilometers and contains numerous waterways, canals, and traditional markets where vendors sell fresh produce and local specialties.
The area was formerly part of Thonburi province and includes Bang Ramat and Bang Chueak Nang regions, which date back to the Ayutthaya period.
Local merchants at Taling Chan Floating Market maintain the tradition of selling goods from boats along the canals, offering fresh fruits and traditional Thai dishes.
The floating market operates on weekends from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with access available via bus 79 or the MRT Blue Line to Bang Khun Non station.
The market started in 1987 with five bamboo rafts and expanded to eleven metal pontoons, allowing visitors to experience canal-side dining and boat tours.
