About this Tour
I love exploring markets around Bangkok, there are just so many to choose from. You’ll find floating markets, street markets, night markets and, even railway markets! The Maeklog Railway Market is perhaps one of the most unique attractions in Thailand. It is a must-do if you are visiting Bangkok for a couple of days.
The crazy thing about the Maeklong Railway Market is that one minute there are umbrellas and stalls scattered everywhere. Hundreds of people go about their shopping as per usual, until a train comes rumbling through. The market quickly packs away right before the train goes right through the middle. Then, in a matter of seconds, it unfolds back into a busy market.
The Floating Market is routinely full with hundreds of vendors and purchasers floating in their small rowing boats selling and buying agricultural products and local food, which they mostly bring from their own nearby farms. Therefore, it is a very attractive place for tourists to see this old style and traditional way of selling and buying goods.
Around this area, boat trip services are available for sightseeing along smaller canals branching off from the Damnoen Saduak canal. Visitors can observe Thai traditional houses and the way they live as well as tasting exotic fruits, local food and refreshing drinks along the waterway.
Visitors can watch the market activity from a passage along the canal. A number of restaurants and shops are located here as well. A fun experience is to make a boat trip and observe the buying and selling, providing countless photo opportunities. You can also enjoy a boat trip on the surrounding canals and observe traces of more traditional life as well as a number of temples and orchards.
It’s easy to visit the floating markets on foot. Just walk along the sides of the canal and watch the rows of packed wooden boats, overflowing with fresh fruit and vegetables and traditional Thai souvenirs.
Unique culinary experience in Damnoen Saduak.
