Flower Market in Bangkok | Pak Klong Talat

No one deny that the flowers is the present for your woman…unless they’re allergic for the flower. Good luck for me that I don’t have this problem and I’m the one who love flowers, especially white roses. When I started relationship with Steve, he sent the flowers for me 3 times and everytime he had to order from online because we’re apart on that time (unfortunately all 3 times no white rose).

Pak Klong Talat is the most famous flower market in Bangkok, it is on Thanon Triphet (Triphet Rd.) nearby Memorial Bridge or known by Thai people as Saphan Phut. Even the rumour of this flower market is what Thai people talk about for a long time ago, especially in any season that the flowers are the star like New Year, Valentine’s day, Graduation ceremonies, Wedding ceremonies etc. If you’re the one who looking for the flowers in Bangkok everyone will recommend you to go and get the flowers from here. That’s because you won’t be disappointed with the fresh flowers and also cheap price.

Pak Klong Talat is open 24 hours a day and everyday. Usually the busy hour for this market will be 5-6 o’clock in the evening till 1-2 o’clock in the morning. This is because it’s the time that the tradesmen from other town come to buy the flowers to sell in their markets.The flowers here sell by retail and also wholesale, I’m not surprised that’s why they’ll be busy all the time for high season. They have so many kinds of flowers from either grown in Thailand like Jasmine, Rose, Marigold, Sun-flower, Tuberose and Orchid etc. For all the price will be around 40-60 Thai baht($1-$2) for one handful depending on what kind and also the grade for that flower.

Or if you keep walking further you will see from both sides of the sidewalk all crowded with the flowers from cold country or some import from aboard like Lily, Gerbera, Bird of paradise, Jacaranda or Rainbow flower etc. Of course for the imported one the price will be more expensive than Thai flowers. Normally the price will start at around 10-20 baht for each flower(not even 1 dollar yet) to 1,000 baht can be. Or if you want you can get the one that they’ve already arranged or you can make a special order for just about anything at all.

Last time I remember I took Steve to Pak Klong Talat, and I know he was surprised a lot! Because everything so cheap for him and make me even more surprise too after he told me how much it cost for the ones that he sent to me. So I told him hey…if we move back to Thailand you can buy the flowers for me everyday ;-)

Next trip to Thailand is coming soon… I will get the pictures from Pak Klong Talat for everyone and then you can see how wonderful they are…
