floating markets operating today are chiefly found in Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam
A floating market, as the name casually suggests, is a market where goods are sold from boats. Most floating markets operating today are chiefly found in Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam.
Damnoen Saduak is a notable floating market in Ratchaburi, Thailand and a major tourist destination. It's an old and traditional way of selling vegetables and fruits. It's also the only place you can buy Malacca grapes, Chinese grapefruit, mangoes, bananas, and coconuts, as opposed to the countries usual markets.
And think about how much easier it is to SIT WHILE YOU SHOP, instead of having to walk from store to store. Now that's smart shopping!

Every year in Norway takes place a festival
Every year in Norway takes place a festival, during which a bonfire "Slinningsbаlet" is burning all night long.
The event is held on the 24th of June and lots of people build this wooden construction of 40 meters tall. When the evening comes, this huge tower is set on fire and it burns till the morning.

Neal's Yard, London
When you get in the city, crowded with tourists all year long, you just want to find a hidden place, where you can escape from all that noise and have some rest. If you're going to London, you'll have such a possibility in the small alley, called Neal's Yard. There you can find lots of small shops, cafe and even some beauty parlours, and it's also one of London's sightseeings.
Located not far from Covent Garden, it's hidden from the people's eyes. So if you don't know the alley's location, you will probably just pass it by.
