The floating market of
Damnoen Saduak (fig.)
long had a Santa Claus-like figure wearing a traditional Thai farmer's hat,
dark sunglasses, a necklace with some
amulets,
and a single white glove, standing along
the main entrance road saluting cars passing by and touting visitors to park
their vehicles and take a canal tour from the nearby
Chanta Suwannoh (จันทสุวรรณโณ)
wharf, in an area known as
Thung Setthi (ทุ่งเศรษฐี). |
