Still Waters

Thailand

The Damnoen Saduak Floating Market is located at Damnoen Saduak District, Ratchaburi Province, about 105 kms from Bangkok. According to history around 1866 King Rama IV ordered that a 32 kms long canal be dug at Damnoen Saduak. This canal would connect the Mae Klong River with the Tacheen River. It is a very attractive place for tourists to see the old style and traditional way of selling and buying fruits, vegetables, etc., from small boats. Tourists will also see traditional Thai houses, the way they live and travel by boats.

That's so beautiful... What a nice photoTricia. The monochrome tone gives it a timeless look. The plastic water bottles are the only indicator that it's taken in the modern times, crop those bottles and you crop time... 1945 Indochina....
Very well done Tricia
