Established in 1987 by Chamlong Srimuang as a tribute to King Bhumibol's 60th birthday, Taling Chan Floating Market has become a beloved attraction for both locals and tourists. The market's primary aim was to revive the traditional floating markets that were once prevalent in Bangkok but had gradually disappeared over time.

These goods are skillfully presented and sold directly from longtail boats, creating a charming and unique shopping experience. What sets Taling Chan Floating Market apart from other markets in Bangkok is its focus on preserving authenticity and providing a local atmosphere.
