Description
Embark on a new adventure today with a community-based tourism experience in Bang Kor Bua. Led by President Eak, we'll be warmly welcomed into the tourism club. Our journey begins at a charming little pier behind the house, where we'll paddle through the historic Khlong Phae canal. This waterway was once a vital trade route for the Bang Kao Bua community, and today, we get to relive its significance.
Guided by Captain Uncle Jitrnai, our boat gently glides through the calm waters, offering glimpses of sunlight filtering through the forest canopy. As we reach the canal's end, we'll pause at a viewpoint. Here, we'll take in the picturesque riverside of the Klong Toei area, offering a unique perspective of Bangkok against the backdrop of the serene Chao Phraya River and a skyline adorned with skyscrapers. This tour allows us to touch the past and present of the Bang Kao Bua community while enjoying a tranquil boat ride and breathtaking views.
