Probably my favorite part of the whole trip was going to the Floating Markets. The Floating Markets were actually about 2 hours outside of Bangkok. We decided to hire a driver for the trip and skip the mass bus tour. This way we were able to leave earlier and get to the markets before the rush! The concept of the Floating Markets is quite amazing. Canal after canal of shop fronts. Long ago they were used by Thais for their everyday shopping needs. While it is now run by mostly Thai women, it pretty much caters to tourists. You could buy anything from pharmaceutical needs to spring rolls to souvenirs. We did take a boat ride through the canals and had a wonderful time!
