Nuevo alojamientoNuevoCanal Alms and Serene Floating Market ride
As the city sleeps, Thon Buri awakens with the quiet hum of daily life along its canals. Join me for a morning exploration of the area’s hidden markets and take part in a customary Buddhist ritual.
• At Sala Nam Ron Market, stroll through stalls selling fresh produce, traditional Thai snacks, and household goods while absorbing the rich history of this local gathering place.
• Hop onto a songthaew truck, a red pickup with bench seats in the back, and ride through the narrow roads of Thon Buri. As we pass temples and local homes, you’ll see how the community has evolved from a boat-centric way of life.
• Explore Wat Taling Chan, a preserved temple and marketplace, before taking a motorized boat ride along a historic canal lined with wooden houses, small piers, and local vendors.
• Take part in a serene Buddhist almsgiving ceremony at Eight Dé Klong Cafe, offering food to monks traveling by boat.
Our experience concludes with a boat ride to Khlong Lat Mayom Floating Market, a vibrant hub where you can explore Bangkok’s canalside heritage further at your own pace.
