Damnoen Saduak Floating Market

Damnoen Saduak Floating Market recalls Thailand's past when daily commerce took place mainly along canals. Although most of these canals have been filled in in the city of Bangkok, a visit to this popular surviving market will reveal past traditions. From early morning, hundreds of boats laden with fruit, vegetables and other goods crowd the canals of Damnoen Saduak. It has all the hustle of a regular market place. The vendors, wearing traditional straw hats, paddle up and down the canal. The best way to explore the market here is to join a local tour.
