floating market
Waterborne vendor gathering
A floating market is a marketplace where vendors sell goods from boats, typically on rivers or canals.
Traditional to Southeast Asia, especially Thailand and Vietnam, floating markets feature produce, prepared food, and household items sold directly from vessel to vessel or to customers on shore: We visited the floating market at dawn when the boats were most active.
