Bangkok Flower Market (Pak Klong Talad) is the biggest wholesale and retail fresh flower market in Bangkok. The market has all kinds of popular flowers and flora-related items, including roses, forget-me-nots, orchids, lilies and more. Most of them are sold in packs of 50 or 100 flowers in each, and prices are amazingly cheap.

Bangkok Flower market is located on Chak Phet Road, near Memorial Bridge in the Old City. Shops and vendors are housed inside 2- to 3-storey shophouses on both sides of the main road. The market lies just south of Wat Pho (Temple of the Reclining Buddha) and has access to a river pier, so it makes for a great 1-day trip when combined with other historical attractions in the Old City.
