The Mon community of Bang Krachao

Posted by admin on August 31st, 2008 filed in Day trips, Sightseeing, Temples

It is not necessary to spend your hand-earned money on a carbon offset to fully enjoy an eco-friendly weekend and save our planet from global warming at the same time. Just make the trip to the tranquil community of the ethnic Mon people at the Chao Phraya River’s mouth. Here tourists will find a complete island to discover along with a great bicycle route.

You can bike at your own chosen speed across the Thai hectic capital’s last zone of pastoral scenery and you don’t even have to bring along your own bicycle. The most ideal days to punch and pitch around Bang Krachao are Saturdays and Sundays. The Chao Praya River can be crossed from three little piers, known as: Chong Nonsee, Toey Nok and Bang Na. Solid hire bicycles are available at the homestay in Bang Nampueng. The rental fee is only 30 baht.
