Bang Kra Jao and Jungle Cycling Adventure Tour | Thailand Bangkok DayTrip

Bang KraJao is a hidden place naturally within the bustling Bangkok. It is just near and located on another side of Chao Phraya River. This incredible wilderness in Bangkok can be reached easily by boat and hardly to believe that the place is still untouched by developers. When you need a break time, Bang KraJao is where you need. You will find yourself in a serene atmosphere with lush greeneries of real tropical forest and will be amazed with the canals, local villages, and temples. It is hard to imagine that this kind of place is truly existed in just a short distance from where all the skyscrapers rise. The ride with less traffic won’t be just a dream here either, as you go through the local communities, and pass by schools, temples (there are more than 30 temples in this area), and floating market (on weekends only). The introduction to various kinds of flowers and local fruits grown along the path will be given as well. And before we are going to a fascinating temple where it is famous for its unique roof made of teak wood, the temple itself is over 250 years old, we will have a quick stop for refreshment on the river. The ride is about 25 kilometers in total. Firstly, we will get through the busy traffic of Bangkok but just a short distance before we cross the river. Then the ride will be on a quiet minor road, through alleys, temples, gardens and tropical forest. Some of the canal pathways are steep and narrow, therefore; high caution is needed. And, we don’t recommend this tour to those who are not good at riding a bike or afraid of heights.
