Description
Join us on an unforgettable cycling adventure through the vibrant back streets of Bangkok, where the rich tapestry of local life unfolds before your eyes. As we pedal through the maze of colourful alleys, you'll experience the enchanting atmosphere of ‘Old Bangkok,’ immersing yourself in the charm of its historic communities while savouring some delicious street food snacks. Our adventure begins as we explore the vibrant Talat Noi neighbourhood located in the heart of Bangkok. The area is home to many traditional Chinese shophouses and temples, reflecting its historical significance as a hub for Chinese immigrants. With roots dating back to the early days of the city the area is known for its rich cultural heritage and charming streets. The local Chinese shrine offers a glimpse into the spiritual life of the community. We’ll take a moment to make offerings to the deity, wishing for good health and protection. This spiritual experience sets the tone for our exploration of the bustling streets of Chinatown. Here, the vibrant atmosphere comes alive as we navigate through lively market stalls and indulge in the mouthwatering delights of street food vendors. Next, we’ll make our way to the riverside, where the fragrant flower market awaits. Prepare to have your senses awakened as we stroll through stalls brimming with dazzling flora from across Thailand. The colours and scents will captivate you, providing a feast for all the senses. Our journey continues as we cross the River of Kings to the ancient capital of Thailand. Here, we’ll find tranquility in the serene temple grounds, where you can feed the hungry turtles and soak in the peaceful ambiance. As we explore the riverside temples, we’ll share insights into Thailand’s beautiful culture and traditions, including the significance of making offerings to Buddha. We’ll head back home along the meandering river cycle path, passing through local communities, to experience the daily life of Bangkok residents away from the bustling tourist spots. As our adventure comes to a close, we will cross the river by ferry, and enjoy the picturesque views and the refreshing breeze.Includes
