Damnoen Saduak Floating Market is full of fireworks

📍Damnoen Saduak Floating Market Check in the classic scene of Thailand's traditional floating vegetable market 🚣‍♀️ Thailand has many canals and rivers. In the old days, land transportation was inconvenient, so people had to communicate through rivers, and commercial activities on the water also came into being. This floating market has a history of one hundred years. 📕 Take a hand-rowed boat to travel through the river and experience the water village life of local Thai residents. This was also the filming location for the movie "007". ⛱ Take a sightseeing boat away from the crowded market and see the residents living on both sides of the river. In this area, you can experience the ecology of the tropical riverside and the life of Thai floating houses. 🚗Transportation methods • Taxi: Go directly through the taxi app Grab or hail a taxi on the roadside. Although the price is relatively high, about 500-800 baht one way, it is convenient and fast, and can reach the destination directly. It is very cost-effective to share the cost when multiple people are traveling together. • Charter: You can book a charter service on major travel platforms or at the hotel front desk. The driver will wait at the hotel entrance at the agreed time and follow your instructions throughout the journey. The driver can also make flexible stops along the way, which is suitable for families or those with a lot of luggage. The price is generally around 1000-1500 baht. • Public transportation: Take the BTS light rail to Victory Monument Station, exit from Exit N3, and find the white minibus heading to Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. There will usually be staff soliciting passengers nearby. The ticket price is about 100-150 baht, but the journey takes a long time, about 1.5-2 hours, and you may encounter traffic jams. 🛶Ferry tickets Purchase directly at the pier, about 150-300 baht per person, prices vary for different boat types (remember to bargain!!). 🎯How to play • Boat tour: Take a long-tail boat to travel through the river, admire the special shops along the coast, and feel the bustle of water trade. • Taste delicious food: mango sticky rice, Thai fried noodles, and various freshly squeezed juices, don’t miss it. • Specialty shopping: Handicrafts and special souvenirs are very Thai in style, and you can bargain appropriately. • Photo taking: Wear bright Thai costumes and take photos with the colorful boats and stalls. The photo taking rate is very high. The recommended playing time is 2-3 hours. Go early in the morning when there are fewer people and the experience will be better.
