    We took a ferry to Thewes - and immediately at the exit, this market is upon you - well after the many taxi, tuktuk and moto taxis are upon you! A feast for eyes - even for a non-gardener such as me! In such an often dreary landscape, this healthy and colourful display was truly beautiful!

    Along Chao Phraya River we can see so many various fishes which can be consumed by people who live along this river.But the strange goes to one of the Vihara/Wat along Chao Phraya. [Forget the name].There's only one white fish among thousand cat fishes[black] in this River, live here.Persicely in front of the Vihara/Wat.... Some says if u see this extinc fish in this river...it will bring you the good luck in future...Just Pray and all your wishes come true.That's what people say abt .
    And we saw it!!!.I saw the White Cat Fish!!!The one and only.
    We can feed them from boat and they will surround us.What greedy fishes!!!

    This is the King of Rivers which you can sail by the Chao Phraya River Ferry. The boat trip is really a worthwhile, which we did coming from Khao San Road going to the Oriental. At each pier, the boat hands plead to the crowd to keep a "cool heart" and allow the gap between dock and boat to subside before disembarking or boarding! Get aboard as quick as possible!

    And ... a charming lady all in hippie style, dared to ask 400 THB per person when we wanted to enter the pier. An unsuspecting tourist would have payed her.

    It is good to know the boat trip only cost 10 THB, just like by a river-bus. You pay and get your ticket within the boat. You'll love it, the cool breeze, watching some famous spots (we saw the Grand Palace and the Temple of Dawn), some Thai kids splashin' around ...

    It might not be the best place to watch a sunset regarding all the pollution that covers the city. However, it is nice enough to be able to catch one along Chao Praya river, our main river in Bangkok. Whether you watch it while cruising or having a dinner at a place along the river.. Sunsetting sets a different mood to Bangkok.

    The boat trip on the Chaophraya river is marvelous, inspite of the rainy day - from an elephant ride through the djungle - over to a boat trip in many parts of Thailand.
