We will experience an unparalleled experience passing through wooden houses rising on pillars, floating kitchens, Buddhist temples where we can feed sacred catfish, and small family businesses. When Bangkok (especially the old part, Thonburi) was first established, almost all transportation was done via rivers and canals (khlong). Houses, shops, and markets were built along the canals, and people went to work, school, and markets by boat. Instead of streets, there were "waterways," and foreigners coming here called it the "Venice of the East." Observing elderly vendors paddling up and down the canal selling everything from vegetables and noodles to modern products like electric fans and radios, we will observe that this name still holds true today.
