Pictures of Bangkok Part 2

Views of the DamnoenSaduak floating market, outskirts of Bangkok. About 2 hours drive from Bangkok city. This is the original floating market, selling mostly souveniers and food. You will see many tourists here. Boat rides are available at many places along the river, with a small fee. You can tell the boatman to stop if you want to buy something from the sellers. The river traffice is quite congested at times, with up to five boats side-by-side (compared to our dual/three lanes!).

Noodle soup in Floating Market, Bangkok

And here's another dish I had at Floating Market, Bangkok...noodle soup. This dish is quite common there, and it comes with small slices of meat, vege, fried taufu skin, and few dashes of pepper. The locals like to add dashes of hot chilli powder to it and some fish sauce.

I thought that this was a bit costly. They charges 35 baht for this small meal. Probably could get it cheaper elsewhere in Bangkok city.

Popiahs from Floating Market, Bangkok

I love popiahs, especially hot steaming ones, with crispy skins wrapping vege strips and meat in it, and dipping it into chilli sauce...yumyum~

Here's a shot of the popiahs I had at the Floating Market in Bangkok. It costs 20 baht a plate. Note that it is garnished with mint leaves which can be eaten.
