A Floating Market In Amphawa
Tourists comes to Bangkok to experience the floating market where you can sit boats to do your shopping. And that's also the only way to get around in the market too! There is a less crowded floating market located very near the MaeKlong Rail Market, approx 10mins drive away.
This floating market opens only from Friday- Sunday at 2pm - 8pm where both tourists and locals will do their visits to enjoy good local food like seafood, Thai local delicacies and sweets while enjoying the river canal view of passing boats. Some people even come close to sunset to watch the sunset, which gives it a magical experience.
This market is one of the oldest, was said to be 100years old too, and plus this market is has lessee tourists especially, because tour busses do not generally come here as well. So if you do drive, this place is a great option to visit after your rail road market visit.

Amphawa Floating Market Located on the edge of the canal in Samut Songkhram Province, this is a floating market that is open for tourists to chill and shop because there will be a lot of items for sale here, including food and supplies.
There are a lot of shops in the Ampawa Floating Market. In addition to the water boats, there are many vendors. There are also a lot of shops on both sides of the river. There are also many shops selling a lot of local specialties and souvenirs. The unique water listing set is impressive. You can also arrange a local boat tour to see the fireflies. The cool wind on the trip is really comfortable on the body. It is super recommended to come to Thailand to arrange a day to come to the water market to experience different customs!
Here, it focuses on selling small and small items. It is very suitable as a souvenir. There is a view boat ride / boat ride to pay homage to monks. Follow Mae Klong water The view is very good. I recommend it.
The scenic spots worth visiting are not very far from Bangkok by car for an hour and a half. The nearby hotels are great, like the grace hotel. 7/8 kilometers away from the water market, of course, the best time to drive is when the peak season is close to the water market hotels are almost booked, only this one has a lot of feels and water market gadgets, a variety of food and drink can also take a boat around the water market and the periphery is more fun. 6.00 p.m. remember to charter a boat to see fireflies or carpool. Why introduce the Grace Hotel because you can see fireflies when you open the door at night? I like none of them very much.
The Ampawa Floating Market is about 80km from downtown Bangkok and needs to be a mini van (similar to China's Iveco), an hour and a half away. The location is at the bus stop from the Victory Monument BTS station. It takes one hour to one shift. When we went there, the price actually increased to 100B in the New Year. The Thai New Year is also on holiday, so there are crowds and traffic jams on the roads. People around Thailand also went to the market. In fact, Ampava is not a real water market in the sense of the river, more like the market on the edge of the river, give me the feeling of a water town like Xitang Wuzhen, if you really want to experience the feeling of boating in Southeast Asia, it is recommended to go to Dannen Shaduo Water Market. But Dannen Shaduo only does the morning market, and Ampava is a golden stall for the afternoon to evening every weekend. There are really a lot of things to eat, especially all kinds of grilled seafood, which is dizzying. I had a seafood meal with my husband, but the taste was actually average.
