Amphawa
Take a taxi 1.5 hours outside of Bangkok to reach possibly Thailand's most charming and authentic floating market. Expect to see plenty more locals than tourists crowding the waterways of Mae Klong River, tucking into traditional Thai dishes like the steaming vermicelli and prawns, authentic comfort drinks like the cha yen (Thai ice tea) and various traditional desserts made from sugar palm and coconut. Take a boat trip in the evening to see the fireflies while enjoying the charm of the traditional canal-side way of living.
