Top floating markets of Southeast Asia
VOV.VN -Floating markets, where goods are sold from boats, are a trademark attraction among Southeast Asian countries such as Vietnam, said Amusing Planet in a recent post on its travel website.
They originate from a time when water transport played an important role in daily life, the post continued. |
The biggest floating markets in the Vietnam Mekong Delta are located at the wet lowlands and broad river valleys of the rural district of Phung Hiep. |
The Cai Be market regularly attracts hundreds of vendors in boats engaged in buying and selling a myriad of wares. |
Other top floating markets in Southeast Asia include the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market near Bangkok, |
the Amphawa Floating Market also near Bangkok, |
and the Dal Lake Floating Market at Srinagar, India. |
