Although far fewer Thais use the Chao Phraya as part of their daily lives today, it remains a potent reminder of the city\u2019s waterborne past.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">Many boats \u2013 from small long-tailed boats to water buses to larger dinner cruise-type ships \u2013 ply the waters for visitors searching for a glimpse of Bangkok\u2019s past, or who simply want to avoid the traffic. The most famous of these boats is likely the\u00a0\u00a0Chao Phrava Express Boat .From downtown Sathorn, the boat goes as far as the northern suburb of Nonthaburi, and prices range from 16 to 33 baht.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"my-24 lg:w-[calc(100%+5rem)] lg:-ml-10\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"max-w-full object-contain w-full bg-black-100 \" src=\"https:\/\/lp-cms-production.imgix.net\/2023-12\/shutterstock1058991356.jpg?auto=format&amp;q=72&amp;fit=crop\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1024px) 1200px, (min-width: 448px) 95vw, 100vw\" alt=\"People sit at outside tables enjoying street food meals\" width=\"4892\" height=\"3261\" \/><figcaption class=\"mt-2 text-right text-xs\">The night markets of Bangkok&#8217;s Chinatown are the best places to try Thai street food.\u00a0<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"article-h2 mb-6 mt-16 text-black\">Island hop in the Andaman Sea<\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">This is what the kingdom is likely most known for: its dramatic, green-speckled islands and celadon waters. The best place from which to experience this is Phuket, Thailand\u2019s largest and most-visited island. From its two marinas, you can hire a boat to survey the Andaman Sea and its many blessings, including the iconic Ko Khao Phing Kan(also known as James Bond Island) featured in the movie <em>The Man With a Golden Gun\u00a0<\/em>(1974), which resembles a tree-furred exclamation point (one of many striking limestone karsts) in\u00a0Phang Nga Bay.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\"><strong>Planning tip:\u00a0<\/strong>Boat rentals can range from US$60 a day on a fishing boat to US$140 a day on a \u201cluxury\u201d cruiser with lunch and dinner included. You can also head to\u00a0 Rassada Pierto take a ferry to tour Phang Nga Bay as a day trip. Book a ticket online in advance in case they sell out.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-h2 mb-6 mt-16 text-black\">\u00a0Peruse some of Thailand&#8217;s best markets<\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">Thais love to shop, so it\u2019s little surprise that Thailand is liberally peppered with markets of all types, from morning fruit displays and weekend craft offerings to raucous night markets and open-all-hours markets. The most famous of these is probably Bangkok\u2019s 24\/7Flower Market , where a panoply of gorgeous blooms makes for ideal photo opps against the background of the Chao Phraya River. Also in Bangkok, Or Tor Kor is widely considered \u2013 even among persnickety Thai aunties \u2013 to be the best food market in the country, especially revered for its traditional sweets and pristine produce.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">Up North, Chiang Mai\u2019s Saturday Walking Street and Sunday Walking Street are predictably famous, but the Walking Street in Chiang Khan on the banks of the Mekong is just as extensive and far more picturesque. If it\u2019s crafts you\u2019re looking for,\u00a0Cicada Market in the beach resort town of \u00a0Hua Hinoffers art, clothing and knick-knacks and is only a short walk from the beach. And if it\u2019s a floating market that floats your boat, tree-lined Khlong Lat Mayom is only 1.5 hours from Bangkok and is far less touristy than Bangkok\u2019s Chatuchat Market and the floating markets of Damnoen Saduak and Amphawa. All are worth visiting but expect big crowds.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"my-24 lg:w-[calc(100%+5rem)] lg:-ml-10\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"max-w-full object-contain w-full bg-black-100 \" src=\"https:\/\/lp-cms-production.imgix.net\/2024-08\/GettyImages-623496506.jpg?auto=format&amp;q=72&amp;fit=crop\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1024px) 1200px, (min-width: 448px) 95vw, 100vw\" alt=\"Amazing beautiful waterfalls in deep forest at Haew Suwat Waterfall in Khao Yai National Park, Thailand\" width=\"5103\" height=\"3406\" \/><figcaption class=\"mt-2 text-right text-xs\">Haew Suwat&#8217;s tumbling waters were made famous by the movie, The Beach.\u00a0<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"article-h2 mb-6 mt-16 text-black\">\u00a0Splash around in a waterfall<\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">If you loved to splash around in fountains as a kid, then Thailand\u2019s many, many waterfalls will surely delight your inner child \u2013 or even your actual child. From close to Bangkok (inKhao Yai National Park, a 2.5-hour drive from Bangkok) to its farthest reaches (in Ubon Ratchathani, next to the northeastern border with Laos), Thailand has a waterfall to suit any swimmer or nature lover, from little paddlers to experienced hikers.<\/p>\n<div id=\"gpt-ad-394852941790\" data-google-query-id=\"CKL8-NO33osDFWKKrAIdyIM95g\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/9885583\/LonelyPlanet.com\/articles\/in-content-middle_0__container__\">Made famous by the movie <em>The Beach\u00a0<\/em>(2000), Khao Yai\u2019s\u00a0 Haew Suwat is not necessarily Thailand\u2019s most towering waterfall (it\u2019s 20m\/66ft high), but it does host an emerald-green pool perfect for midday dips. Located in Erawan National Park in western \u00a0Kanchanaburi,the eponymous Erawan Falls is one of the most famous waterfalls in the country, thanks to its seven mighty tiers and the tiny fish that nibble at your toes at the bottom.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">Meanwhile in the far northeast lies the isolated\u00a0 Soi Sawan waterfall in \u00a0Ubon Ratchatani ,near where wildflowers bloom in the cool season and numerous hiking trails lead to amazing viewpoints.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-h2 mb-6 mt-16 text-black\">\u00a0Learn more about Thailand at its top museums<\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">Thailand is chock-a-block with museums, but some are more enchanting and enlightening than others. Belying the image of a fusty old building harboring ancient relics from a far-off land,Museum Siam in Bangkok tells the story of how the \u201cLand of Smiles\u201d came to be through a series of creative, interactive exhibits geared mainly towards children.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">Also in Bangkok, the\u00a0 Jim Thompson House Museum keeps the spirit of the Thai silk tycoon (and rumored CIA agent who disappeared in 1967) alive by making his former home and collection of art and antiques accessible to the public. And only 40km (25 miles) southeast of Bangkok, Muang Boran (the Ancient City) is a faithful reconstruction of Ayutthaya-era Siam, set over 200 acres and labeled the world\u2019s biggest open-air museum.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\"><strong>Detour:<\/strong> If you can make it out of the Bangkok area, the lengthily titled Hellfire Pass Interpretive\u00a0 \u00a0Centre Memorial Walking Trail,situated 100km (62 miles) from Kanchanaburi, was created in memory of the WWII POWs who helped build the Burma-Thailand railway, also known as the \u201cDeath Railway\u201d immortalized in the 1957-film <em>Bridge Over the River Kwai<\/em>.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"my-24 lg:w-[calc(100%+5rem)] lg:-ml-10\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"max-w-full object-contain w-full bg-black-100 \" src=\"https:\/\/lp-cms-production.imgix.net\/2023-12\/shutterstock752188504-resize.jpg?auto=format&amp;q=72&amp;fit=crop\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1024px) 1200px, (min-width: 448px) 95vw, 100vw\" alt=\"A hiker takes some tentative steps out onto a suspended wooden walkway that clings to the side of a mountain\" width=\"3008\" height=\"2008\" \/><figcaption class=\"mt-2 text-right text-xs\">The\u00a0 climb up<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"article-h2 mb-6 mt-16 text-black\">\u00a0Hike up mountain paths and through lush forests<\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">Despite its reputation as a classic fly-and-flop destination, Thailand also manages to be generously laden with hiking trails tailored to all levels of experience. Only 25km (15.5 miles) south of the resort town of Hua Hin,Pran Buri Forest Park features a 1km-long (0.6 mile) boardwalk along mangrove forests and pine trees, allowing even toddlers the chance to stretch their legs while surrounded by greenery.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">Up north, close to Chiang Mai, the 13km (8-mile)\u00a0 Buddha Footprints Trail is a simple out-and-back walk popular among birdwatchers for the diversity of both wildlife and foliage on display (a guide is required and can be hired among the Hmong villagers).<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">Meanwhile, thrill seekers \u2013 and devout Buddhists or meditation enthusiasts \u2013 will love\u00a0 Wat Phu Thok ,also known as the \u201cLonely Mountain\u201d and located in Northeastern Bueng Kan. Visitors are encouraged to ascend a 359m-high (1,200ft) peak by way of steps, carved paths and eventually rickety-looking wooden slats. The experience, meant to mirror the seven levels to nirvana, is supposed to encourage meditation and focus on the \u201cnow\u201d as walkers negotiate every strenuous (and occasionally daunting) step.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-h2 mb-6 mt-16 text-black\"><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-h2 mb-6 mt-16 text-black\">\u00a0Taste Bangkok&#8217;s best street food in Chinatown<\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">Rejuvenated from its post-pandemic slump, Bangkok\u2019s street food scene is newly vibrant, especially in areas like the Old Town, along Charoen Krung Road, on Bantadthong Road, and by the Victory Monument. \u00a0The birthplace of Thai street food (and restaurants) is\u00a0 Chinatown\u2013 also known as Yaowarat. Chinese-Thai dishes like oyster omelets, soup noodles, rice porridge and black sesame-stuffed dumplings tempt passersby along Yaowarat Rd, which becomes a neon-lit roadside buffet at night. Just remember: many street food stalls are closed on Monday, so check your chosen vendors beforehand.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\"><strong>Planning tip:\u00a0<\/strong>While in Chinatown, visit one of Bangkok\u2019s hippest nightlife spots, Nana Road (in Chinatown, not on Sukhumvit). Here, famous watering holes like Tep Bar ,\u00a0 Teens of Thailand and the taxes-themed TAX rub shoulders with picturesque shophouses and noodle joints.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-h2 mb-6 mt-16 text-black\">\u00a0Cycle around some incredible ruins<\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">Before Bangkok was even a gleam in the eye of King Rama I, the country\u2019s capitals lived further up from the Chao Phraya River, first in\u00a0 Sukhotai and then in Ayutthava (also known as Ayuthaya). Now both UNESCO World Heritage sites, their ruins testify to the power and beauty of what was formerly known as Siam. Ranging over 70 sq km (27 sq miles), Sukhothai Historical Park showcases Wat Mahathat at its center, arranged like a lotus among 193 ruins. Visitors can explore the grounds by rented bicycle before heading to \u00a0Ramkhamhaeng National Museum.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">At the larger Ayutthaya Historical Park, active from the 14th to 18th centuries, 425 unearthed archaeological sites include Vihara Phra Mongkhon Bophit, home to one of Thailand\u2019s largest bronze Buddha statues. You can also hire a bicycle to survey the park or head on out with a guide, and even rent traditional Thai costumes for a photo shoot.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-h2 mb-6 mt-16 text-black\">\u00a0See marine life on a snorkeling or diving trip<\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">Underwater explorers of all abilities will find their dreams come true in the Andaman Sea or Gulf of Thailand. With its warm water, striking coral reefs and many manta rays and whale sharks, Thailand is thick with top-tier diving sites in Phuket, Ko Phi-Phi, Ko Tab \u00a0and\u00a0\u00a0Ko Pha-Ngan.If it\u2019s snorkeling you\u2019re after, the waters of Ko Chang and Ko Tarutao Marine National Park \u00a0host bountiful marine life in clear blue water.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-h2 mb-6 mt-16 text-black\">Make your way to a temple<\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">Thailand is home to more than 40,000 temples \u2013 choosing which one to visit can be rather difficult. Although most people will say that visits to Bangkok\u2019s\u00a0 Grand Palace and Wat Pho are musts, some other temples scattered throughout the kingdom could be the ones to reside permanently in your memories.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">In the far Northern town of\u00a0\u00a0Chiang Rai,Wat Rong Khun\u2013 otherwise known as the White Temple \u2013 features a \u201cbridge of rebirth\u201d that takes visitors over a \u201clake\u201d of outstretched hands representing human suffering. Further south near ,Pattaya the Sanctuary of Truth stands as Thailand\u2019s largest wooden building, painstakingly carved using traditional techniques.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">And on the border between the North and Northeast regions in Phetchabun,Wat Phra Thad Son Kaew displays a series of giant Buddha images sitting in each other\u2019s laps inspired by Russian nesting dolls, surrounded by Gaudi-like mosaics and a vast tapestry of stunning mountains.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md my-6 text-black-400\">If you do decide to stay in Bangkok,\u00a0 Wat Aru,(aka \u201cTemple of the Dawn\u201d) is a beautiful and less-touristy temple on the banks of the Chao Phraya, while Wat Po also houses a massage school said to have been the birthplace of Thai massage.<\/p>\n<div class=\"relative w-full my-12 aspect-video\"><\/div>\n<section class=\"bg-sand-100 py-9 lg:px-12 rounded w-screen -ml-4 md:w-[calc(100%+5rem)] md:-ml-10\" data-view-track=\"\" data-tagular=\"{&quot;event&quot;:&quot;ProductViewed&quot;,&quot;product&quot;:{&quot;location&quot;:&quot;ARTICLE MODULE_SHOP&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;EXPLORE ALL BOOKS&quot;,&quot;position&quot;:0,&quot;brand&quot;:&quot;SHOP&quot;}}\"><\/section>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_video link=&#8221;https:\/\/youtu.be\/KyC_mKy7Zf8?si=Wy-mWs5Ko-kt9v7u&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Things to Discover in Thailand [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] Cruise Bangkok&#8217;s Chao Phraya River Before it became known for its traffic jams, Bangkok was once described as the \u201cVenice of the East,\u201d [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":19426,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,190],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16776","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog-news","category-thailand"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.4 -
