Damnoen Saduak Floating Market & Maeklong Railway Market Tour From Bangkok

Overview

Damnoen Saduak Floating Market consists of a maze of narrow khlongs (canals). Female traders, often wearing traditional mo hom apparel (blue farmers' shirts) with wide-brimmed straw hats (Ngob) use sampans (small wooden boats) to sell their wares, often produce. These boats are often full of vegetables and colorful fruits that are photogenic, and these images are used for tourism promotion. The market is often the busiest in the morning from 07:00 am to 09:00 am and is active until noon. Explore the market waiting for the train, Maeklong Railway Market is spread out on and next to the railway tracks. Customers walk on the railway track looking for something to buy from the shops on either side of the track. Several times per day a train rolls in at a low speed. When the driver sounds the horn, the vendors quickly pick up and remove their wares to make way for the approaching train. Immediately after the train has passed the canopy roof is raised back and it’s business as usual.
