Picture of the Week #102 - Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, Ratchaburi


Damnoen Saduak is one the most famous floating markets in the world. The items which are sold from boats and shops (on the banks of the waterways) include fruits, vegetables, Thai fast/street food (i am inclined to use the term floating food rather than street food as it is sold from boats) and souvenirs.
