Local Life Experience

DETAILS

  • 61/2
    hrs Estimate Duration

Experience daily life in the fertile agricultural countryside and delve into Thailand’s spiritual side by visiting the area’s most important Buddhist temple. While it will take two hours to reach Chachoengsao, it will be well worth the effort. The Bang Pakong River supplies abundant water to the area, and rice especially flourishes there. As you will discover by browsing the century-old Klong Suan Market with the locals, every imaginable type of food is available. Best of all, many vendors offer samples. For an entirely different perspective of the area, you will visit Luang Pho Sothon, a temple with a revered statue of Buddha that according to legend was found floating down the river. Chances are, you will see worshippers praying for prosperity and others leaving offerings. Women often leave boiled eggs in hopes of becoming pregnant. While wandering about the temple, be sure to notice the artwork, especially the painted murals of religious scenes.


HIGHLIGHTS:
• Enjoy a leisurely and immensely picturesque drive into the agricultural countryside.
• Browse Klong Suan Market with the locals as they peruse the seemingly endless stalls.
• Visit a beloved Buddhist temple and mingle with the worshippers and pilgrims.
