Reviews Pak Khlong Talat (Flower Market)
For those visiting Chinatown, a short walk to the Flower Market is well worth it. Here, you'll find an impressive array of flowers and vegetables on sale. It's important to note that the flowers are often prepared as offerings, so refrain from smelling them unless you plan to buy. The market is open around the clock and is free to visit, making it a convenient and enriching addition to your tour.
This vibrant market is a dream for photographers, offering endless opportunities to capture the local culture and colorful scenes. While there are some tourists, it primarily serves the city's floral needs, giving it an authentic atmosphere. Plus, it's close to both the river and MRT, making it easily accessible.
Pak Khlong Talat is a must-visit if you're touring Bangkok. The market is bustling with life and filled with mounds of fragrant flowers that create an incredible sensory experience. I bought three dozen roses for just $20, and their fragrance lingered in my hotel room until I left. Conveniently located near Chinatown, it's open 24 hours, making it an easy stop on your itinerary.

Wikipedia Pak Khlong Talat (Flower Market)
Pak Khlong Talat (Thai: ปากคลองตลาด, pronounced [pàːk kʰlɔ̄ːŋ tā.làːt]) is a market in Wang Burapha Phirom Subdistrict, Phra Nakhon District, Bangkok, Thailand, that sells flowers, fruits, and vegetables. It is the primary flower market of Bangkok and has been cited as a "place of symbolic value" to Bangkok residents. It is on Chak Phet Road and adjacent side-streets, close to Memorial Bridge. Though the market is open 24 hours, it is busiest before dawn, when boats and trucks arrive with flowers from nearby provinces. Its location by Chao Phraya River near the southern end of Khlong Lot, hence the name 'Pak Khlong Talat', literally means "the market on the mouth of the canal".

Chinatown Self-Guided Walking Tour
A giant statue of King Rama I, located within walking distance from the flower market and Sky Park, sits in a well-maintained park. The open area is perfect for relaxing, though the fountain at the entrance lacked water during my visit. The statue itself is clean and well-kept, making it worth a visit if you're nearby.

Wat Suthat Thep Wararam Ratchaworamahawihan
Temple Walking Tour
Wat Suthat Thep Wararam Ratchaworamahawihan is a beautiful must-visit temple in Bangkok, although there are some dress code rules such as no shorts allowed. The fees are reasonable, and the courtyard is stunning, making it worth a visit. I was unable to enter due to wearing shorts but will definitely return with proper attire next time.
