Lok Baintan Floating Market on the Martapura River in Indonesia
A trip to the market for people in the city of Banjarmasin, Indonesia, may mean a trip to the banks of the Martapura River. There, you can find hundreds of boats like these, stocked full of local produce and even baked goods, ready for customers to peruse. As we observe World Population Day, images like this can remind us that simple acts such as shopping for food is a common experience, even though the markets themselves may be distinctly different from culture to culture and location to location.
