Bangkok/Kanchanaburi/River Kwai/Ayutthaya Day 2 (Morning)


Floating market at Damnemsaduak

23 Nov 2005. After breakfast, we left Bangkok for Kanchanaburi/River Kwai. Enroute, we visited the Floating Market at Damnemsaduak. The guide brought us to the jetty and we took a 10 minuute boat ride to reach the market. The place was buzzing and colourful. It was completely different from the one in Bangkok. Products sold ranges from local tropical fruits, vegetables and accessories like slippers, hat, etc.






Pra Pathom Chedi

Our next destination was Pra Pathom Chedi at Nakhon Pathom. The 127 metre tall pagoda is believed to be the world biggest and tallest. We circled clockwise around the pagoda for good luck. Imagine, it took us about 10 minutes to complete the walk.
