It never occured to me that there are floating markets outside of Thailand. Yet, in Vietnam that probaly was the first place we were brought to when touring the Mekong Delta. There are several popular floating markets including Cai Be floating market on the Tien river and Phung Hiep market which is the biggest due to its location at the intersection of 7 major canals. The floating market we went to wasn't as bustling as the one in Thailand. The boats however were bigger. I had thought it was the Cai Be floating market which is situated closest to Ho Chi Minh City and the most convenient to visit. It didn't occur to me then to ask.
