Looking for a place to visit this weekend?

"Bang Luang Canal Community," a historic community that seamlessly blends the past and present…






Traveling to the Bang Luang Canal community is very convenient.

If you are arriving by car, it is recommended to enter through Soi Phetkasem 28. You can park your car at Wat Khuha Sawan temple.

Alternatively, for a more relaxed journey, take a car to Soi Charan Sanitwong 3. At the mouth of the alley, you will find motorcycle taxis and red songthaews ready to serve you.



Live life to the fullest, like riding a train without fear of getting off at the wrong stop or missing your destination.

The road ends here, there is no way for the car to go further.


From the drop-off point, follow the small path. If you see a bridge over a canal with the sign "Khlong Bang Luang," you have arrived.

But if you walk... and look up, the sign says "Khlong Saeb Saeb". I guess you must have gotten on the wrong bus, haha!




"Oh my god! How did we miss this place?"

It lacks the essence of Bangkok.



By the time we decided where to go, it was almost noon.

"Indeed, as the ancients said, 'An army marches on its stomach.'"

We began our duties diligently with "Auntie Lek's Kway Chap".

The food is delicious and the taste is delicious. In addition to the kway chap, the must-order dish is sticky rice with mango. It is a truly delicious lunch with a complete range of flavors.

Let's go!!! Now that we're full, we can head home. 555555 Just kidding, we have to keep going now that we're here.



Upon crossing the bridge, you will encounter a wooden house that still retains its old charm.

If you're looking for a bustling market with a wide variety of food and fresh produce to take home and cook, then a visit to a floating market is a must.

It is simply a home for the people who actually live there, selling what they are good at, so the goods are not as abundant as in general floating markets.

Our first mission is to fulfill the beauty queen's mission: to love animals and feed the fish.

The vibrant colors of the fish food and the old wooden seats by the water were too tempting to resist. They were a perfect match.

The highlight is that Khlong Bang Luang has tourist boats passing by all the time. You can sit and feed the fish while glancing at the handsome foreigners, which is another way to relax.

The canal is teeming with catfish, likely due to its proximity to the temple, which discourages fishing.


Translation:



A short walk along the canal will lead you to the "Artist's House".

The old wooden house, now transformed into an art exhibition space, is divided into two floors.

Translation:



The above is a point of display for images and artwork.

Below is a performance stage and a training ground for performing arts for interested children.



Translation:


It also serves as a food and beverage shop, offering both rice curry and mieng kham. Yum, sounds delicious, doesn't it?

Is there anything else I can help you with?

In addition, there are books, postcards, and souvenirs for sale, each of which is very tempting.

Translation:




Enjoy "painting a souvenir mask" as a way to spend your free time while waiting for the small puppet show.

The performance will take place at 2 pm.


The house will have a table for relaxing and doing activities.

However, we needed the right atmosphere. The artist needed to build up their emotions, so they sat down to paint on the balcony by the river in front of the house.

The advantage is that it is very relaxing, sitting and watching the boats pass by, sparking the imagination.

The downside is the pressure of having people secretly watching you paint. The expectant gazes.

Don't expect it. Even when we do it ourselves, it doesn't turn out the way we originally intended.

An announcement was made: "Tourists from the Taling Pling Floating Market will be arriving for the afternoon small puppet show. Please hurry and reserve your seats."

Feeling protected like a consumer, hehe, we've been waiting for so long, so we have to sit and watch (shrugs lightly). Suddenly, I rushed up to the 2nd floor. There weren't many people, mostly foreigners. Soon the show started. It was a set of Hanuman catching Nang Suwannamatcha.

Another enjoyable aspect of the performance was the actors' enthusiasm, which engaged the audience.

Translation:


The old wooden house came alive with laughter and applause.

After the performance, you can contribute to the project because there is no admission fee. However, you are welcome to support the project according to your ability and interest.

Translation:



After the performance, the foreigners behind me were in the state shown in the picture.

At first glance, I was shocked! I thought something was wrong with them. They must be tired from sightseeing and the hot weather in Thailand, which is hotter and stronger than 4G.

After that, I walked along the riverside and returned to the other side of the bridge. Along the way, there were many tempting dessert shops.

After a moment's thought, I realized I was starting to feel a bit peckish in the hot weather, so I decided to have a bowl of food.

The shop actually provides cups and seating by the river, but we had to use foam cups because we had to move on to our next destination.

Along the walkway, there are shops selling beautiful and exquisite items, as well as souvenirs, stretching along the banks of the canal.

It was four o'clock in the afternoon, time to go home. But before leaving, I caught sight of a group of children playing in the water. I decided to take a peek.

Translation:

The child seemed shy at first, hesitant to jump in. After talking for a while, they started to warm up and enjoyed watching the other children play in the water.

Translation:

Even though the water may not look very clean, nothing can stop the fun, right? Jumping into the water and playing with friends is a childhood memory for many people.

Translation:

Sister: Shy

We : Jump and show me some cool moves.

Child: Still looking shy and embarrassed.

It seems like we need to pull out all the stops! Let's give everyone 20 snacks each. Now, let's see what happens!

They jumped and tumbled until their mouths were numb. Every move, every martial art they had learned, somersaults, cartwheels, they gave it their all!



Today, I escaped the hustle and bustle of Bangkok for a peaceful getaway. I sat by the river, dangling my feet in the water, and enjoyed the simple pleasures of life. The acoustic music playing softly in the background added to the relaxing atmosphere.

The joy and smiles of the children we met today remind us that "the happiness of each age passes quickly." We ourselves must also seize the happiness that arises in the present, so that it becomes a beautiful memory when we look back on it...
