Thai Trip Report #8

Jun

There are various kinds of boats which you can catch in Bangkok. I like the river ferry, which travels up & down the Chao Phraya River. It`s cheap & you can see interesting sights such as temples, old houses, river barges, people fishing, etc. Also, when it passes the Boon Rawd beer brewery (=factory) you can smell beer being made... mmmm!

Another kind of ferry travels along the main canals of Bangkok. It`s very handy for avoiding traffic jams on the roads but it`s difficult to find if you`re not a local. Also it`s noisy, dirty, smelly, & it`s a challenge to get on & off (look at the photos above). I love it!

It sounds cool.
These days it is little hot, so the article is just in time.
Is there two type of river ferry in Thailand?
I've gotten on a ferry when I've gone on a trip to Hong Kong.
