Colors of Bangkok

At our office/lounge we have a a small briefing before jumping on our bicycles and start the adventure.

The first part of our journey is on Rama III Road itself where our office/lounge is located but only for a few minutes because the ferryboat to cross the river isn’t far away. While standing on the riverbanks of the Chao Praya River you will be impressed by the many loops that are running in and out the Bhumibol Bridges I & II at 40 meters height.

Lad Pho Pier is located in Samut Prakan province, Thailand. It is a popular tourist attraction known for its picturesque views of the Chao Phraya River. The pier serves as a transportation hub for locals and visitors alike, with boats departing regularly to cross the river.

Bangkrachao is an artificial island in the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok, Thailand. It is also known as the "Green Lung of Bangkok" due to its large amount of green space. The island is home to a variety of wildlife, including monitor lizards, and over 60 species of birds. It is also a popular destination for tourists, who come to enjoy the natural beauty and explore the man-made attractions, such as the Bang Krachao Floating Market, the Bang Krachao Bicycle Trail, and the Bang Krachao Tree Park. The island is also home to a number of temples, including Wat Bang Nam Phueng, Wat Bang Nok Kwaek, and Wat Bang Kachao. Bangkrachao is an important part of Bangkok's culture and history, and is a great place to visit for anyone looking to experience the city's unique atmosphere.

Although we absolutely don't stop at every temple we pass by, there are some temples/sights stopping for and not mentioned in the list of "attractions" in the area. We'll stop at a local Hindu statue/temple, have a meal at a local restaurant and much much more. Let us surprise you

Sri Nakhon Khuean Khan Park and Botanical Garden is located in Bang Kachao Sub-District, Samut Prakan Province with an area over 200 Rai. This place was established for being the source production of fresh air, the public park for relaxing and exercising for the people. Also, it is a place for ecosystem education on plant species and animals both local and within nearby area. Therefore, it compares as one of an oasis for the city people who want to experience nature, the local way of life and escaping Bangkok’s chaos. The garden’s characteristic is a combination of public parks that the landscape has been arranged beautifully. It consists of aquatic plants, local plants that are able to grow within brackish water and preserve the original agricultural garden which was the original fruit garden. This park and botanical garden is a Greenfield that the government declared to be “the lungs of Bangkok.” A wooden bridge is for visitors to stroll on peaceful and shady area, including the 7 meters high tower view that can capture the whole scenery of this area. Other than the botanic garden, there is so Bang Nam Phueng Floating Market which opens every Saturday and Sunday (we visit this on our Weekend edition).
