Damnoen Saduak Floating Market
The Damnoen Saduak Floating Market is located at Damnoen Saduak District, Ratchaburi Province ,Thailand.
About 105 kms from Bangkok. According to history around 1866 King Rama IV ordered that a 32 kms long canal be dug at Damnoen Saduak. This canal would connect the Mae Khong River with the Tacheen River.
The excellent quality soil beside the canal is very fertile and suitable for growing many kinds of fruits and vegetables. The area is famous for Malacca grape, Chinese grapefruit,
mangoes, bananas, and coconut.
I love to eat a noodle and som tam that buy from the small boat in floating market. It very delicious more than in restaurant or another place. 
The Damnoen Saduak Floating Market is a very attractive place for tourists to see the old style and traditional way of selling and buying fruits, vegetables, etc., from small boats. Tourists will also see traditional Thai houses, the way they live and travel by boats, and please try riding on a small boat to experience the floating market and to see more. This is a worthwhile trip.
Get To There :

Saduak (Highway No.325).
