Besides, Damnoen Saduak Market is tourist attraction you can see the traditional of Thai people that live with the river at Ratchaburi Province.
Thailand is famous for its floating markets and some of the best are found outside the major tourist metropolises. Damoen Saduak has a daily market but in the month of March this is bolstered by "sea boxing", cookery demonstrations and boating competitions; all taking place after the 6am-11am market period.
In the narrow klongs (canals) of Damnoen Saduak, women crowd the waterway network to ply their trade, selling goods to both residents of riverbank houses and each other. The sight of boats overflowing with fruits, flowers and foods straight from the land and women in typical farming dress is unforgettable.
The floating market tradition has not been changed too much by the groups of tourists who come here (save for a few souvenir shops) and this is a far more authentic experience than the floating market of the Thonburi klongs close to Bangkok. There is accommodation in Damnoen Saduak if you want to avoid a long day trip and have the early morning strolls through vineyards and along klongs all to yourself.
