From Chai Nat, went on 341, and about 200km later,arrived at Nakhon Pathom. This would be the last night of the trip for the Dynamic Duo of Cookie Monster & Insane Rider.
With time in our hands, we played tourist and visited the Mahasawat Canal for some sight-seeing. Agro-Tour and Eco-Tour is becoming more mainstream nowadays. We hopped onto a couple of long tails and was ferried along to different parts of the canal banks. Many Orchids and hybrids are bred here, and also other plants and flowers. Including Cannabis. Other parts of the canal have Lotus farm. And fishes in abundance. Throw some bread (can purchase from the stalls) into the canal and you see big fish swarming in close to the banks, feeding frenziedly. Amazing.
Done with the eco-agro-tour thing, it’s time for dinner at the huge night market near the famous Phra Pathom Chedi. Chedi is a stupa. This chedi is huge and is the dominant structure of this area. That is always something going on around the chedi. There are all sorts of local food and delicacy in this market. But it is a little pricey. And to be honest, I have tasted better food at other Walking Streets.
But no problem. We ordered and sample different food. We are playing tourists, remember? And then back to the hotel 30km away.
Tommorrow, we head for Nakhon Pathom
