Pak Khlong Talat

Pak Khlong Talat
Bangkok, Thailand (TH)
Pak Khlong Talat (Thai: ปากคลองตลาด) is a market in Wang Burapha Phirom Subdistrict, Phra Nakhon District, Bangkok, , that sells flowers, fruits, and vegetables. It's the primary flower market of the city and has been cited as a "place of symbolic value" to the residents. Though the market is open 24 hours, it's busiest before dawn, when boats and trucks arrive with flowers from nearby provinces. Its location by the 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".
