Magic of
colors and flavors in simple floating stands. Ordinary people, in
ordinary boats bid their goods, rocking in the weaves. They worry how

Women slowly row, probably talk about what to cook, how are they
children, what weather will be tomorrow.
We found some good information’s about this place, found on beautindonesia.blogspot.com:
Floating
market is one of the most unique tourist objects in Indonesia. It’s
located in Banjarmasin city, South Kalimantan. Locals said that Lok

in other locations, are replaced by the regular land market). To get
there, you can use klotok (motorize wooden boat), car or motorcycle. But
the best way to see this unique market is by klotok. There you can see
the local farmers and traders making transaction on the river. Commonly,
they sold fruits and vegetables…
