Grab some delicious local food from the market to enjoy during your relaxing boat trip along the Tha Chin River. See traditional riverside houses, temples, and local communities along the river.
Next, visit the extraordinary Wat Samphran, also known as the Dragon Temple. This unique 17-story pink tower is wrapped by a giant green dragon sculpture.
