Thaka Floating Market: Thailand’s Most Authentic Experience
Amphawa
About
Of the many floating markets in Thailand, Thaka is perhaps the most 'authentic' version that there is. Vastly different than the neighbouring floating markets at Damnern Saduak and Amphawa, Thaka is not usually on the maps of most tourists. It could be considered as the last of its kind and it would be a wise decision to visit before it too welcomes mass tourist numbers.
This quaint, laidback floating market is still fully operational. Just as they have been doing for years, the locals buy and sell fruits, meats, fish and more from their floating wooden sampan in a very relaxed, old-world vibe.
Nearby is a coconut plantation where the farmer makes palm sugar the traditional, old fashione...

A most traditional floating market remaining that operates on the weekends only (except on Buddhist holidays). Considered 'off-the-beaten-track' and not visited by foreign tourists as much as its neighbours, the Damnoen Saduak and Amphawa floating markets.
