Description

Discover the different and diverse cultures of Bangkok’s business districts on a gentle bike tour around the city center. Stop at a local temple, and pedal through the slums of the notorious “train-graveyard” en route to Talad Klongtoey market. Bangkok City Culture is a bicycle adventure of about 4.5 hours through the heart of Bangkok business-districts. Although we avoid most of the roads with traffic, a part of the routing will be on main roads with other traffic. Bangkok City Culture starts at our office/lounge at 884/20 Rama III Road where we choose our bicycles and receive instructions for the ride. As soon as we bend of the main road we stop at a typical local temple. We ride along the train-graveyard, through small communities and visit the biggest fresh-market, Talad Khlong Toei. All your senses will wake up while there and you will be very busy with your camera. (If this has not happened before we reached this market) Of course we give you some time to discover this hidden gem. One of Bangkok’s best-kept secrets. After the market we cross the always traffic-congested Rama IV Road that brings us to the newly built Queen Sirikit Convention Center and the tranquil Benjakitti Forest Park. In the Benjakitti forest Park we will have a break and rest while enjoying the views. We continue our Bangkok City Culture ride on the “green mile”, a viaduct for pedestrians and cyclists between the Benjakitti Forest Park and The Lumpini Park. This viaduct crosses one of the most expensive streets in Bangkok, Thanon Witthayu, also called “wireless road. Many Embassies and 5-star hotels are located on this street. As soon as we go down from the stairs of viaduct we’ll be at the entrance of the famous “Central Park of Bangkok” Lumpini park. While enjoying this beautiful park we can see locals doing Tai Chi or Yoga and other outdoor activities. If we are lucky, we might meet the famous permanent residents of Lumpini Park, the huge monitor lizards! Although they are look scary, they are harmless. After the break we continue our Bangkok City Culture bicycle ride through small communities and stop for a delicious Thai lunch at a local shop/restaurant. After we this we’ll finish the ride about 12:30 at our office/lounge. Bangkok City Culture ride gives you a totally new and unique Bangkok Biking experience. Note: sometimes it may be necessary to change the above program and the places to be visited due to unforeseeable circumstances.
