Damnoen Saduak Floating Market

Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, known as the "Venice of the East", is one of the most representative floating markets in Thailand. You can choose an acceptable price to take a boat. There are two types of boats: one is a traditional hand-cranked boat, which is slower but full of historical charm; the other is a boat with an electric motor equipped with a sunshade, which is more comfortable. There are many merchants on the boat and they will shout out prices randomly. Remember to find a price you can accept and don't be treated as a fat sheep. The floating market is very lively, and the crowded boats often make the river seem very congested. The market sells mango sticky rice, coconut ice, fried rice noodles and other foods. If your stomach is good enough, you can try them. We didn't eat them because we were worried about diarrhea. In the second half, you will pass by traditional stilt houses, where merchants sell clothes, paintings, souvenirs, etc. The atmosphere here is relatively quiet, which is completely different from the hustle and bustle of the market. Occasionally, you can see the daily life of local residents. #July Good Place 2025 #Thailand #Damnoen Saduak Floating Market
