Dannoen Saduak, a must-see around Bangkok

Dannoen Saduak Water Market is one of the famous markets in Bangkok. It is located in the southwest of Bangkok, about 80 kilometers away from the city center. In the market, small boats selling goods crisscross on the canal, and the water homes on the riverbank form a typical Bangkok impression. The biggest feature here is that the locals on the shore are the most simple and honest, and the perfect integration of goods trading and residents creates a warm and typical Bangkok impression. The formation of this market can be traced back to the 18th century, when people migrated here to escape the heat and disease, and built wooden houses on the river, forming the original "water village". Today, these wooden houses still retain the original style of water homes and have become a unique local scenery. Due to its tropical location, the temperature here remains around 27°C from November to March of the following year, and the water temperature rises to between 28℃ and 31°C in May. So every summer, a large number of tourists come here to feel the cool world on the water. Here, you can see traditional Thai wooden boats and canoes, as well as enjoy the beautiful traditional ethnic dances. In addition, you can also ride a long-tailed boat or a rubber raft, shuttle through the criss-crossing river channels, and experience the feeling of being a "fisherman". Of course, if you don't want to take a boat, you can also stroll along the riverbank, enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way, and enjoy a rare tranquility. In addition to the bustling market, this is also a paradise for various specialty foods. There are fresh and delicious seafood, as well as fragrant grilled fish, roasted suckling pig, and various fruits such as mango, mangosteen, durian, and so on. In short, coming here, you can not only taste authentic Thai cuisine, but also feel the strong Southeast Asian style. At the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, Even if you don't know Thai or English, you can communicate with them smoothly, and bargaining is not a problem.
