Damnoen Saduak Floating Market

March 2001

The floating market is a dying tradition but one is still alive about an hour outside of Bangkok. It's only open in the morning before the sun gets too hot. You can either stand at the edge and let the boats come up to you or you can rent a ride on one and stop at different stalls. They sell mainly souvenirs and clothes but also fruits and vegetables or if you missed breakfast you can get a bowl of steamed rice.
