Bangkok Trip 20090209 Day 2

Day 2 morning, we booked one of the hotel taxi drive us 120km away from the Bangkok town to a small village where the floating market nearby. That morning we can see the whole Bangkok so dusty and the morning sun covered by dust even 8.30am....

We are lucky that only two of us occupied one boat with the local Teow Chiew Chinese. You can find the houses built very close to the canals.....

The hawkers in the both sides of the river use a long hook to pull our boat to sell their handcraft items and souvenirs....

When come closer to the main Floating Market, boats also traffic jam....The hawker even deep fried the bananas in their boat and sell on the spot....

Other than local artworks, many types of local fruits available.....

After lunch, the taxi driver bring us to another temple Wat Po, which one of the famous Thai temple....

.....the rich cultural of Thai temple and the indoor Sleeping Buddha...

When we drive pass the Grand Palace, we are unable to visit due to the wrong opening hours, we notice another Government building just across the street....

That night after the whole day journey, we take another Tutu to one of the Thai Restaurant to enjoy the local Thai food, like Tong Yam, Pandan leaf chicken, hot place seafood and of course beeeersss......

After the dinner, we take another Tutu to one of the biggest shopping centre MBK...
