From Waarun, you can take a boat along the river and see the big Buddha statue. 1200 baht, although it's a little expensive, but the wooden buildings along the river contain the lives of the residents. Although it's not the beautiful appearance we want, I think it's not bad to see something a little realistic than just looking at something gorgeous and good.

In some places, rivers look more like canals. Pollution, garbage in the water, old wooden houses can be seen everywhere. There are also some river markets. Frankly, these rivers are far from meeting the standards of the Amsterdam or St Petersburg canals. River markets are very common in Africa and parts of Asia. I was interested in canals when I first saw floating markets in the 1980s. But now, I have gone to so many places that I think it is no longer interesting.
The canal is not only an important tourist attraction in Thailand, but also the daily transportation lifestyle of Thais. Walking along the canal, you can see a lot of Siam-style buildings, which are very exotic.

After a study of the site map, I was pleasantly surprised to find that it happened to pass through the entire business district and there was a pier (ship fee 11B/2.5 yuan), which was very convenient! In about 10 minutes, a willow-shaped wooden boat arrived, which could carry 30 or 40 people. Because the river is relatively flat and the boat owner has been familiar with the boat, the speed of the boat is quite fast, and there is a lot of spray all the way, which can be blocked by the rain curtain. The crew walks up and down the pedals outside the boat to sell tickets and observe the navigation (also pay consciously). Many wooden boats shuttled back and forth, and many passengers were on and off at each pier along the way.
There are many transportation boats on the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok. This is not only the patent of tourists, but also the important transportation for locals. The boat on the canal is cheap, very convenient and beautiful. There is a station in each section. Buying a ticket at the station is like waiting for a bus. You must try.
