Thai Food - Floating Markets

Adapted from: Thai Street Food in my Area by Gor (Panrit "Gor" Daoruang) a Thai Teenager and his webite:

 

This floating market is located about two kilometers from the township of Damnoen Saduak District, in Bangkok. It is locally called Klong Latphli Floating Market.

Here hundreds of vendor boats crowd the market area, mostly paddled by women in Thai style hats called NGOP. They sell every thing from vegetables and fruit to kitchen gadgets or fresh-cooked noodles or sweets.

I took these pictures myself when I went to the Floating Market in Ratchaburi province.
