South of Bangkok, this floating market is mainly a tourist attraction these days. Most of the canals have been filled in. Also called Damnoen Saduak, it is about 100 km southwest of Bangkok. King Rama IV had the 32 km canal built, and many floating markets existed until road development reduced the need for water transportation.
