Thailand - Pattaya 3 (Floating Market)


  Photo Gallery of Pattaya in Thailand, part 3.

A view of the floating market.
  Pattaya is a beach resort, about 150 km southeast of Bangkok. You can enjoy beaches, shopping, and various entertainments.
  This page shows Pattaya Floating Market, called Talad Nam Si Pak.

  Speaking of floating markets, the two markets in Bangkok are very popular and famous: Damnoen, the morning market (in Ratchaburi, about 80 km from Bangkok) and Ampawa, the evening market (in Samut SongKhram, about 72 km from Bangkok).

  The Pattaya Floating market is still new and opened in 2008. The site is very wide, about 100.000 square meter, and it has four parts of Thailand; central, north, north-east, south area.
  As well as gift shops, you can enjoy various shops such as Thai massage and also Thai cultural shows such as Thai dance and Thai boxing.
(When I visited there, no show. Sign...)

Now, let's go to the Pattaya Floating Market. Hmmm, it's different from the markets in Bangkok ?

 The picture left shows the entrance. See ? The board shows Thai boxing (above the water !) and elephants. You'll feel various Thai cultures here.

 We visited this market on the New Year's in 2010 and the entrance board says "Happy New Year". :)
There is a pond around the entrance and it has a big windmill and dragongs' fountain.

'The Pattaya Floating Market
You can see a lot of people including tourists go and come by boat and sell and buy on the water in Damnoen, the morning market in Ratchaburi. However, this market is a little bit different.

Of course, you can enjoy sightseeing on a boat but it looks like this is a place where you enjoy the floating market while walking around from its structure.

A lot of shops are waiting for you on the water like in the picture above.
