What makes Amphawa & Railway Markets & Firefly Boat Ride: Multi-Lang Private Tour from BKK a unique experience ?
The Railway Market is humorously called as the “life-risking” market! You will have fun watching a local train running toward the Mae Klong station. You will see the “Unseen-Thailand” experience. When the train signal rings up, the chaos will happen! Vendors will rush to detract their stall and clear away all goods that obstructs the running train at a great speed. Once the train passes, all shop owners will resume their stalls again. The transportation from Maeklong Railway market to Bangkok is about 1 hour 50 minutes.
Wat Bang Kung is one of the most iconic attractions in the Amphawa district. The temple is famous for its roots and branches of the Banyan tree that locked the ordination hall housing the “Luang Por Nin Manee”, the golden buddha image dated back to the Ayutthaya period. In the 18th century, Wat Bang Kung is the gathering place of Thai heroic warriors so it houses many statues showing Thai boxing posture. This place is therefore a great photo-taking spot for foreign travelers.
At Amphawa Chai Pattananurak, immerse yourself in the natural essence and discover the wisdom of local lifestyles. This serene area boasts lush, chemical-free agricultural gardens and a versatile space dedicated to cultural activities, fostering a true economic benefit for the local community. Explore the ‘Chanchala Shop’ with its array of Chai Pattana Foundation products. Additionally, visit a dedicated garden where the art of coconut sugar production comes to life, complete with informative displays detailing each step from processing to packaging and beyond.
Amphawa Floating Market is one of the traditional floating markets which is a utopia for shopping lovers. The market offers a variety of Thai seafood, snack, and a sweet treat at a very affordable price. You can buy grilled fish, squid, prawns, steamed crab, and oysters from many shops along the canal. On the other hand, if you are a big fan of fresh fruit, you can buy lychees, mangosteens, and custard apples that are freshly harvested from nearby fruit farms here.
After the Amphawa floating market tour, you will ride a long-tailed boat to see the beauty of night lights along the Amphawa canal.
