What makes Bangkok Insight -Thonburi and Nonthaburi – Walking tour (minimum 2 persons) a unique experience ?
Avoid tourist crowds and get on an express taxi boat, one of Bangkokian’s transportation means, carrying passengers from suburbs into downtown for their work. Grab yourself a seat if you can find one, but better be fast. Along the Chaopraya River or known as River of King, you can start taking pictures of those 5 stars hotels like Peninsula, Mandarin Oriental or Shangri-La etc as well as observing the harmony of Thai society which even though Thailand is a rich Buddhist country, there are churches, mosques and Buddhist temples standing next to each other in the same community.
Our first stop is at Wat Prayunwongsawat. There is a man- made Stone Mountain and a pound where hundreds of turtles are living together with numbers of enormous fish. Buy a plate of fish ball or bread to feed the turtles to prolong your life as in Buddhism Turtle is a symbol of long life.
Stroll along the very small pathway, passing a small primary school in the old community, formerly Portugal quarter and visit Santa Cruz Church. Get pleasure from walking along the waterfront of river until we meet an old Chinese Shrine, built of teak wood. Gain some spiritual insights while watching people burning lot of incense, praying homage to their Chinese Gods and Goddess.
Continue to Wat Kalayanamit, a beautiful but hidden temple of Thonburi which houses a magnificent astonishing gigantic Buddha image.
Visit Wat Rakang (Ra-kang means bell) another old temple since Ayutthaya period. Take a break, try a simple Thai dish (late lunch is included)
