Bangkrachao is located on the southern of Bangkok, to reach there, just cross Chao Phraya River by boat from Klongtoey pier to the greenery of Bangkrachao.
(Long tail boat)

It is an absolute and immediate change from the other side of the river (Klongtoey) as at Bangkrachao there is no tall building, not many cars, cleaner air and very dense greenery. Factories, industries are not allowed in this area that is why Bangkrachao is called the "Lung of Bangkok". Here you will see the simple life style still maintained since 30 years ago, an ancient chapel in the old temples, local schools, and tropical fruit plantations.

The main mode of getting around Bangkrachao for the tourists and the locals is by walking, motorcycling, and biking on elevated concrete pathways. Riding upon these elevated concrete pathways, usually not wider than a dining room table, is the most challenging part of this trip. Underneath the elevated concrete pathways is the base of one of the groves filled with water, and also, the 90 degree angled turns that do catch the cyclists by surprise, even though they have been warned about them.
