Tickets available at the main entrance. 
Lover type tourists are strongly suggested to visit LoveLockLoveBridge zone nearby Kritsada Doi zone close to the back entrance. LoveLock package provides lovers a set of lock pad and key to, first, make strong wish together before locking their love wishes up onto bridge’s bar, then simply throw away the key into river. This beliefs doing such a thing like this can strengthen up their love forever.
Lover type tourists also invited to walk a little bit after LoveLockLoveBridge zone heading to back entrance, writing their love wish on golden leave and hanging on sacred tree called ‘Du Lala’ internationally known as ‘Go Lala Go’; one of the most famous Chinese movie about Chinese office worker guy losing his lover, after having been trying to search for her from place to places ending up with no hope and desperation, he wrote his wish on a leave and hanging back on the tree. Amazingly unbelievable, he found his girlfriend within the next day after long lost search for nothing for weeks. You might now a bit wonder what and why the market so interested in this movie and even set up the spot for tourists. The answer this ‘The location where the tree situated is the real location of the Du Lala movie shot 5 years ago.’
Shopaholic, hopefully this term is not too strong, or shopping lovers, well! let say tourists who hardly find any idea on what to buy and bring back home for your loved ones.

Transportation to the market is a piece of cake, why? Because the market is located on Sukhumvit highway comfortably connected to Bangkok with only 1.30hr by private transport, public ones from Ekamai, Morchit, SaiTai, bus stations usually takes maximum 2 hrs to get to Pattaya bus station; after get off the bus you just need 3 minutes walk back to Sukhumvit highway, cross the road and hop on blue-white-dark blue baht bus, takes 15 minutes, and all of them heading to the market direction. Truly a piece of cake, isn’t it?
Another classic transportation one is by train, this will take you a little more time usually around 3 hrs from HuaLamPong train station in Bangkok but the scenery beside should be completely different from land road ones. Train leaves Bangkok every morning and stops exactly behind the market at Pattaya Floating Market sub train station completed since 2 years already, and the train leaving the market back to Bangkok around 2 pm, the best bogies usually available during weekend.
