A floating market is a market where fresh produce and other products are sold from boats. Some boats prepare famous Thai dishes (as in cooking in a HOT wok!) while navigating the bumper-boat parade. Originating in times and places where water transport played an important role in daily life, most floating markets operating today mainly serve as tourist attractions, and are chiefly found in Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam. Located a couple of hours ourside of Bangkok, Damnoen Saduak Flotaing Market in Ratchaburi, Thailand, is one of the most famously known floating markets, and is a major tourist destination.
