We thereafter take the medium long tail speedboat
to Bang Yai, hold on to your hat and sunglasses and approx.
20 minutes later, we will arrive at Wat Bang Yai, with the second
biggest reclining Buddha in Bangkok. The streets are very narrow,
the traffic is different, the contrasts are enormous, the locals
are not at all used to foreigners here and we will cause a lot
of curious attention. We visit the local market in Bang Yai
and we are of course also going to taste some the exciting tropical
fruits.
The former premier minister is a frequent visitor
to Bang Yai and the very local restaurant, where we will have
our lunch, fried rice with chicken and vegetables.
To get into the smallest klongs, we now have
to take the smallest long tail speed boats, one speed boat can
comfortably carry 4 foreigners and again hold on to your hat
and glasses. It does not look like Bangkok at all (you are only
2 hours away from your hotel) and now on the way into the unknown
Bangkok. The nature is fantastic green, the silence and once
in a while another boat passing by, a palace and next door,
a house almost falling apart and all the locals smiling and
waving.
The boat ride by the smallest long tail speed
boats takes one hour and once back in Bang Yai, we will after
stretching our legs take the biggest long tail speed boat back
to Bangkok and the Grand Palace (the entrance fee to the Grand
Palace is not included), where we will arrive approx. 45 minutes
later and end tour.
