Amphawa Floating Market


After Damnoen Saduak, Amphawa floating market is the second most well-known floating market; that is reachable from Bangkok
center within 1.5 hours by car. The distance is approximately 50 km but sometimes it can take up to 3 hours to get there due to traffic jam. Amphawa is not as big as Damnoen Saduak Floating Market; yet personally, I find it more authentic and
less commercial. There is an important note that you should keep in mind while designing your itinerary, Amphawa is only opened during weekends, Friday, Saturday and Sunday and from noon until evening.
