Kwan Riam Floating Market (Thai : ขวัญเรียม ) is one of the central floating markets of Bangkok, Thailand. It located between Soi Saereethai 60 and Soi Ramkhamhaeng 187.

The name of the market "Kwan-Riam" comes from the name of characters in Thai romance-drama novel named Plae Kao. Kwan and Riam love each other but were obstructed by their parent. Kwan-Riam floating market is one of the newest floating markets in Bangkok. It opened in May 2012. It is open Saturday and Sunday and on public holidays from 7 a.m - 9 a.m. .

Market women cook food in the little boats. There is also a water buffalo and rice farmer. People often photograph and ride the water buffalo. The market has good views of the SanSaeb canal.
