Wat Takien Floating Market is another tourist attraction near Bangkok that is worth checking in. Even though it’s a small floating market, your eyes will be dazzled with delicious food and various things to do and to see.
This floating market is located inside Wat Takien and along the river. The atmosphere is nice and you will feel refreshed from the river breeze while shopping there.
This floating market is relatively clean and the food is cheap.
There are vendors rowing boats to sell things; i.e. vegetables, fruits, sweet, and traditional snacks and delicious food, that are freshly made.
There are vendors on the ground, too.
Most of them have smiles and friendly manners.
If you visit this market, you must not miss eating. "boat noodles". It’s said that this menu acts as a signature of the Wat Takien floating market.
Even though there are many people waiting in line, it’s worth trying because it's incredibly delicious.
This floating market provides free haircut service which is located in a small corner of the market. Very interesting!
Apart from the above mentioned things, there are also some sacred things for people to worship closely in the area of the market and some awesome sculptures and magnificent paintings concerning Buddhist stories.
I can say that visiting Wat Takien floating market will be a fun trip for you; you can buy cheap, fresh and delicious foods, worship sacred things, learn the ways of local people's life and admire the scenery of the river in the meantime. That’s great, right?
