Visit Khlong Bang Luang Floating Market (Bangkok)

Despite its name, it is no longer a floating market because there are no salesmen on boats, whether they are sailing or their boats are moored. The Klong Bang Luang Market, however, remains a nice piece of canal to escape the hubbub of central Bangkok and eat a bite or drink a coffee or other soft drink in one of its restaurants and cafes. You will also find some stalls selling souvenirs and a painter but the inevitable place here is the Artist House (Baan Silapin in Thai) and its daily show at 2 pm. I advise you to come here for 1pm, eat and attend the show.

It is probably better to come here on weekends because on weekdays the place is a lot more quiet and everything is not open. The Khlong Bang Luang Floating Market, especially the Artist House, is on the program of a boat tour on the klongs which departs on Saturday and Sunday from floating market Taling Chan at 1 pm but be at least 1 hour before at the counter to be sure they are still tickets for you.
