"Don't worry about the distance between Tha Chalom and Mahachai, let's connect our love instead."

This line from a song I've heard since childhood always made me imagine a vast distance between the two places. Today, I finally had the chance to visit Mahachai Market to see for myself.

Arriving late in the morning, I was worried the market might be closing soon. But to my surprise, it was bustling with activity. The variety of fresh seafood was incredible! I regretted not bringing my car, as there were so many tempting options, including a giant fresh stingray and even baby sharks.

One of each, please, auntie!!!!

Mackerel or Indian mackerel: Mackerel and Indian mackerel are similar in appearance, but Indian mackerel is larger. However, mackerel is tastier. Nowadays, most of the mackerel available are Indian mackerel.

Just bring one of each, auntie! Steamed lime, please!

Would you like some dipping sauce with that? Have a whole lot and eat until it comes out of your ears!

Dried goods are also available. My mother said that the dried goods on the east side are more delicious than those on the west side. I don't know if it's true. If anyone knows, please let me know. Deep down, I don't really believe it.


I walked around and found the Mahachai Railway Station in the middle of the market. What can I say? It's dirty and poorly managed. I mean, the station itself isn't dirty, but it's dirty from the water in the market that makes the station messy.

Why can't we manage these? Encroachment, intrusion, or did they rent it? And who did they pay?

Accessible from Thon Buri Station

I just came out to pay respects at the Mahachai City Pillar Shrine, which is located opposite the Mahachai Market. I'm wondering what kind of belief the city pillar represents, as the surrounding art at the Mahachai City Pillar Shrine is all Chinese in style.

Main City: Art as commonly seen.

Surroundings: All Chinese art here.

Paragraph 1:

As usual, I don't usually pray, but since I'm in a new place, I thought I'd give it a try for good luck. Don't call it praying, call it reading.

Paragraph 2:

We're going to cross over to Mahachai by ferry. You can take your motorbike on board, but you're responsible for it. It's a quick trip from Mahachai to Tha Chalom, but when you think about the song "Tha Chalom" and the surrounding environment, it must have been difficult to cross in the past because the water looks very rough.

The road is slippery, especially when wet. Be careful, both pedestrians and motorcyclists.

Motorcycles are allowed. Please take care of yourself!

The original text describes a situation where someone intended to take a picture of an oil tanker but ended up capturing a fishing boat instead, with a pole partially obstructing the view.

Here's the translated version:

I wanted to take a picture of an oil tanker, but I only managed to capture a fishing boat, with a pole partially blocking the view.

Farewell, Mahachai.


After disembarking at Tha Chalom Pier, I rode my motorbike around, passing both famous Thai temples and the Goddess of Mercy shrine. I felt indifferent and had no desire to stop. However, when I passed Christ Church, also known as St. Anne's Church, I suddenly felt compelled to visit. To be honest, the artwork at Christ Church is quite intriguing and has a simple aesthetic.

Church Front


Left: Statue of Saint Anna. Right: Clock Tower.

The statue of Saint Anna can be rotated 360 degrees. By inserting a 10 baht coin, it will rotate 180 degrees. If you insert a coin to rotate it only halfway, the statue will return to its original position. It seems like a standard setting to keep the statue facing inwards, rather than facing out to the sea. The rotation is also quite fast, not slow. Feel free to stop by and see it for yourself.


It seems like I'm reading a biography. No!!!! Trying to find out why it only rotates half a turn.


It's noon!!!!! I'm hungryyyyyyyyy!!!!!! I turned around and asked the aunt. What restaurants do people around here go to? The aunt gave me 2-3 names. Let's go to the one I like. I rode my bike around and found this restaurant. I turned the corner and parked. "Chom Ao Kitchen" The restaurant looks experienced.

This presentation is very Thai. What is the point of putting your children on the front of the menu?

The restaurant was not crowded at noon. The food was delicious and the place looked clean. The price was not cheap, but not outrageous. The atmosphere was okay, with a nice breeze.

Seafood Fried Rice with Abundant Shrimp, Squid, and Fish

The crab meat was a bit disappointing, but it was a small order and already shelled, so there wasn't much left.

Stir-fried mixed vegetables, looks delicious! This is tasty.

**Squid in lime sauce, a delicious dish perfect as an appetizer.**

** **

The meal concluded with refreshing desserts: chilled salak in syrup and Lod Chong from Wat Chetuphon. The Lod Chong was of the usual high standard, and the salak was incredibly delicious. The sweet and sour flavors were perfectly balanced, making it a treat that could be enjoyed all day long.

After a satisfying meal, we decided to explore the area. The aunt mentioned a mangrove forest nearby, which piqued our interest. We rode our bikes along the path, enjoying the scenery. Tha La Om is a charming town with a unique approach to managing its public spaces. One aspect that particularly impressed us was the use of medians for growing vegetables. The municipality plants and maintains these vegetable gardens, allowing residents to harvest and enjoy fresh produce. This initiative not only promotes sustainability but also fosters a sense of community.

Ride straight along the path until you reach the end, where you will find the "Mangrove Learning and Development Center 2 - Samut Sakhon." This center offers a managed mangrove forest area where you can walk and explore.

Be warned, there are a lot of mudskippers! Watching them fight and bite each other is quite entertaining. Mudskippers are actually quite aggressive creatures, and they even fight amongst themselves. It's quite a sight to see!

There are pavilions for you to relax in. The atmosphere is perfect for sleeping. If you bring a mat, you won't be able to resist taking a nap.

The short journey was interrupted by a call from my mother, who expressed a craving for sweets from Amphawa. With a sigh, I set off on the long drive, bracing myself for the heavy traffic. Upon arriving at the Amphawa Chaipattana Foundation's project, I decided to indulge in a coffee break. Nestled amidst a sugar palm grove, the project focuses on the production of fresh and palm sugar. The tranquil atmosphere proved to be the perfect setting for a relaxing nap.


After buying snacks, I drank coffee and went to sleep.

**Coffee tastes normal, according to the price. The highlight is the atmosphere of the palm garden and the furrows.**

A wide variety of souvenirs made from palm trees.

** **

This basket reminds me of my grandmother. She only used it for one occasion: going to the temple to make merit.

****

The lid is beautiful, but I don't need it. It would just clutter up my house because I wouldn't use it.

****

This is the owner's old house. Houses like this are rare to find in such perfect condition, as most have been completely rebuilt.

** **

This is the kind of atmosphere in the valley that makes you feel good.

This is a sugar boiling pan. It's not in use right now. I asked if they had any palm wine, and the lady said no, it's illegal and the police will arrest you. As I walked past the old man, he said, "It's at home, not ready yet." What's going on here?


Finally, after enjoying a cup of coffee and a nap at a table as the sun began to set, I rode back to my private residence, concluding an unplanned day trip.
