'''Si Yaek Maha Nak''' () is a sub-district (''[[khwaeng]]'') of [[Dusit]] district, Bangkok. It has a total area of 0.375 [[km2|km]]<sup>2</sup><ref></ref> and Phitsanulok road is the border with Suan Chit Lada sub-distrct.

The word "Si Yaek Maha Nak" means "Maha Nak Intersection" or "Maha Nak Four Corners", but it's not a crossroad. It's a water intersection. Since this area is famous for [[floating market]] since the past. The name "Maha Nak" after [[Khong]] Maha Nak (คลองมหานาค; Maka Nak canal), the canal has a starting point at the Khlong Rop Krung (คลองรอบกรุง; lit: ''around the city canal''), which is part of the old city moat ([[Rattanakosin Island]]), around Saphan Mahat Thai Uthit (Mahat Thai Uthit bridge) near [[Ratchadamnoen Avenue|Ratchadamnoen avenue]] and [[Mahakan Fort]] passes through [[Khlong Saen Saep]] (Saen Saep canal) to the east for a distance of 1.3 km (0.8 mi). All of these canals were built in the early [[Rattanakosin]] period. In the reign of King [[Phutthayotfa Chulalok]] (Rama I) and [[Nangklao]] (Rama III) was the main transport route of the people in those days. It's the center of travel and trade by boat and connects to [[Chachoengsao province]], [[eastern Thailand|eastern]]. It became a floating market in the end.<ref name=talat/>

There's an incredible story that one.

And it's rumored that [[King Mongkut]] (Rama IV) has come to see.<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>

At present, Si Yak Maha Nak is still an important market as in the past. It's the location of the Maha Nak Market or Saphan Khao Market. a Bangkok's largest wholesale and retail fruit market. In addition, it is also adjacent to [[Bo-bae Market|Bobae]], wholesale and retail cheap clothes market located in [[Pom Prap Sattru Phai]] district.<ref name=talat></ref>
