|

Damnoen Saduak (Means: Comfortable travel) is a district (Thai: Amphoe) in the Thai province Ratchaburi. The floating market - Damnern Saduak Floating Market - on a klong near the district office is its most famous destination, where locals and foreigners alike visit for relaxation, enjoying the local Thai culture, and Thai style shopping (lots of fresh fruits, vegetables and flowers). Men and women travel on the river selling their wares; underneath their straw hat is usually a smiling face!
Leaving Bangkok early in the morning, 0700 hours, we arrive at the ferry boat pier and take a long tailed speed boat to the main part of the floating market. You may wander around the market on foot or pay 150 baht extra to join a paddle boat to buy any souvenirs/fresh fruit etc you might wish to purchase. Whichever you choose you will have one hour to yourself at this point.
We leave the floating market and have lunch at approximately 12.30 pm.
After lunch (which is included) you can spend time at your leisure, then watch the culture show at the Rose Garden, which includes 14 shows and over 150 performers, vividly portraying a fascinating cross section of Thailand's cultural heritage and way of life, ceremonies, dance and pastimes. The Rose garden is located just outside Bangkok and has 70 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens. Ponds with bridges and beautiful flowers. The fully restored pavilion by the pond is open to the public and there are many interesting water features.
The Rose Garden is a superb place for a day trip; there are so many things to see and do including amazing flowers and trees, to elephant rides and Thai boxing.
This is one trip not to miss!
