See the Floating Markets in Bangkok

2011: I went to a small floating market, close to the city. It was called Taling Chan. There were several others which were rather far; you would need to wake up at 6 a.m. to be able to reach them before they started selling.

The one that I went to was simply a house on stilts above the water with sellers' boats surrounding it.




Tried some noodles from one of the boats

2018: I went with my partner, this time to Damnoen Saduak. To access this market, we had to go on a boat ourselves. It was expensive because there were just the two of us.
