Ko Kret,The famous small island in Nonthaburi Province,Thailand


My family had a trip to Ko-Kret on December 2009.

Ko Kret is an island in the Chao Phraya river, to the north of Bangkok, Thailand, and belongs to Amphoe Pak Kret. The island is only reachable by boat, usually from the Wat Sanam Nau Pier. There are also boat tours around the island.You can reach Wat Sanam Nau Pier by many way.

1.Via Chao Phraya Express Boat (a transportation service in Thailand that operates on the Chao Phraya River) for green-yellow flag trip on its entire route from Pakkret to Sathorn.

2.Via the Bus to Pak-Kret station

3.Taxi

At Wat Sanam Nau Pier,there were a lot of people that wanted to go to Ko-Kret that day

This is the picture inside the boat.



On the island there are several temples (wat), such as Wat Poramai Yigawat.



There are so many famous things at Ko-Kret and make Ko-Kret the most popular tourist target in Nontaburi province.Such as the unique food Tot-man-nor-ka-la(fried fish patty) shop in this picture.



The famous potteries and earthenwares that contain water,coffee and milk for sale.This picture I bought a cup of milk in a Doraemon-style pottery.



Ko Kret island located at Nonthaburi Province, very close to Bangkok.I think it's one interesting place to visit via boat trip along Chao Phraya river in Thailand.

Thai Floating market at Amphawa ,samut songkhram




After check-in at Baan Amphawa Resort & Spa , our plan was go to the famous floating market for dinner and then go to see the Firefly (Glow-worm-Lightening bug) via a boat along Mae Klong River.

There were many interesting things around the floating market (Thai word call : Tarad Naam Yaam Yen) such as steamed fish with curry(Hor-Mok) ,traditional Thai dessert,Pat-Thai(a dish of stir-fried rice noodles with eggs, fish sauce,tamarind juice, red chilli pepper, plus combination of shrimp with crushed peanuts) etc...







Another beautiful handmade working was the coconut-shell lanterns.I thought it was very creative idea to do this handmade things.

When we finish shopping at the floating market , the sunset begun ,and that time the Fireflies will appear

Fireflies were appeared as a tiny bright spot in the same as the starlight,we could find the Fireflies around Cork Trees(Sonneratia caseolaris,Laam-poo) along the Mae Klong River.It was very difficult to took a photo of Fireflies, but I have a photo from the boat for you to see.



The Amphawa floating market located at samut songkhram, very close to Bangkok.I think it's one interesting place to visit in Thailand,if you have any holiday time.
