The first "Must-See Market" in Surat Thani is located at the Ban Don Floating Market in Mueang District. Historically, the area known as Talad or Ban Don Market evolved into a prosperous community due to its commercial port, where sea vessels docked to transport goods and ferry passengers. This spot became a gathering place for locals and is deeply connected to the lives of the people who live along the rivers and canals. The community's way of life is still intertwined with the water, earning it the nickname "City of a Hundred Canals." Today, Ban Don Floating Market thrives as a lush, natural marketplace, embodying the charming lifestyle of the urban community that has persisted through time.
