The Red Lotus Floating Market is a new traveling place in Nakhon Pathom that was opened in 2017 ๐ธ๐บ๐ธ Of course, we couldn’t miss this hidden gem from our travel radar!
Nakhon Pathom is a city in central part of Thailand and it’s a three-hour drive from Bangkok. Technically, the Red Lotus Floating Market is not a floating market but a red lotus pond where you can ride a boat for around half an hour (3,5$ for a trip)๐จ๐ปโ๐พ๐บ๐ถ
Taking a drone shot
How did we get this amazing photo without owning a drone? ๐จ๐ปโ๐พ๐จ๐ปโ๐พ Let us share with you all the details!

First of all, it is hard for tourists to use a drone in Thailand as you would need to register it. Luckily, the Red Lotus Floating Market has a drone service and you can buy a whole set of pictures from your boat ride for $10 or just purchase one pic for about $1.5๐ We don’t own a drone (because Aon does not allow Lan to buy one๐ข) and it was a wonderful opportunity to make one of our best pictures together so far!๐ฌ
Instagram ideas
The Red Lotus Floating Market has an area around the lake where you can find a lot of delicious food and souvenirs. Also, there are many photo opportunities for your Insta-shots. Some of our examples below.
