The floating market

In Bangkok and its surroundings there are several floating markets. They were important many years ago, but today only work as tourist attractions. The most famous is Damnoen Saduak which is located approximately 50 Km south-west of Bangkok. The easiest way to get there is by renting a taxi. It costs approx. 100, - Dkr for a single trip, but the hotels also arrange the tours.

Man sails to the market through channels in long boats. The tours can be bought as 1 or 2 hours. You do not have to wait until 13:14 because it's too closed. I revisited the market on December 7, 2022.
