Damnnoen Saduak Floating Market
Damnnoen Saduak Floating Market is Thailand's most popular floating market, and one of the oldest! The floating market is a large part of Thailand's unique tradition, where special long-tailed boats can be seen - you can also take a ride on a hand-cranked boat to eat and drink all the way down the narrow canals.
Maeklong Railway Market
The Maeklong Railway Market is a popular attraction about an hour's drive from Bangkok and is a spectacle worth experiencing for yourself.
The long train whistle comes, and you can see the vendors on both sides of the market unhurriedly moving their shacks and stalls out of the way before the train arrives. When the train whistles by, the people standing on the side are only an arm's length away from the train, very exciting, right?
In addition, Mekong Railway Market is only about half an hour away from other floating markets, so many tourists choose to visit in one day.
