Itinerary

  1. Wat Paknam Phasi Charoen

    30 min

    The route stops at:

    • Wat Paknam and Big Buddha – famous for its giant Big Buddha and stunning emerald-glass pagoda. Inside its dazzling stupa, visitors are treated to cosmic ceiling murals and a serene atmosphere that makes this historic temple both peaceful and awe-inspiring.
  2. Khlong Bang Luang Artist House

    30 min

    • Artist House and the community – aka Baan Silapin is a 200-year-old wooden house that has been lovingly transformed into a cultural haven. With its creaky teak floors, colorful murals, and quirky art displays, it feels like stepping into another era where creativity and tradition meet.
  3. Talad Plu Market

    30 min

    • Talat Phlu food market – is one of Bangkok’s most beloved local markets, famous for its mouth watering street food and authentic neighborhood charm. By day, the market buzzes with stalls selling fresh produce, traditional Thai desserts, and everyday goods. But it’s at night when Talad Phlu truly comes alive.
  4. Wat Nak Prok

    30 min

    Wat Nak Prok is dedicated to one of the most iconic episodes in Buddhist lore—the moment when the Buddha was shielded from torrential rain by the *Naga*, a mythical serpent-like being. As the Buddha meditated toward enlightenment, the Naga rose from the waters and curled protectively around him, creating a shelter from the flood. This powerful story is beautifully reflected in the temple’s imagery and atmosphere.
