Klong Klone Mangrove, Thailand. ( Khlong Khon)
Khlong Khon
Thailand is a combination of various circumstances with both mountains, forest and sea. No wonder why people from all over the world prefer visiting Thailand during their holidays. Bangkok is always the first destination to land as there is the biggest international airport like Suwannaphum Airport and Don Muang which can connect visitors from many places and then continue the trip to some other parts of Thailand. Travel from Bangkok to other places in Thailand if you want to see and enjoy it, we suggest traveling on land. Of course, the minivan which is easy to access to all places and also more comfortable with some space where you could put your luggage and things along the trip.
Today we are going to introduce you to one of the areas if you love nature instead of temples which you could see everywhere in Thailand. Mangrove area! We are going to introduce you to Klong Klone ( Khlong Khon) Mangrove forest where you could take the boat ride by the local people to go along the mangrove from the small canal channels to the sea. On the way, there are some fishermen who live and earn their living from fishing, finding clams, cockles, razor clams and fish which you could stop by and take some photos and have some conversation with them. The other fun part is seeing wild monkeys that live their lives with the locals. Here it is a great opportunity to see and get close to the monkey as you could feed them the food and they are going to swim by the boat to get the food. Is that cool? You could add this place to your travel list or let us show you.
Pang Pa Inn Palace, Ayutthaya
Ayutthaya province is one of the destinations that most visitors put it on the travel list. Due to Ayutthaya province located not to far from Bangkok which means you could also travel as a day tour if you have not much time plan while visit Thailand. However we would like to suggest this place to be on your travel list as it is one of the historical places in Ayutthaya instead of Ayutthaya historical site with the old ruins of the temples and the ancient city.
Pang Pa Inn Palace located on the Chao Phraya River bank which separate a bit from the main Chao Phraya River, it first built in Ayutthaya Period and was abandoned after got the 2nd lost from the Burmese War. Until King Rama 4th of Thailand had reconstructed the palace again and used as the reception palace for all Kings and Queens from abroad such as The Queen from the Netherland, The Queen from Denmark, Elizabeth the Queen of England as well as the Royal Family from Japan. There are 7 important spots to visit in Pang Pa Inn Palace. The famous one would be the memorial statue of Queen Sunant aKumareerat, the queen of King Rama 5thof Thailand who passed away from the shipwreck with her 2 children which you could see the memorial statue in the palace area. This palace became the memorial of love for King Rama 5th to his wife and his children since then.
Now a day, the palace opens for the visitors as well as Thai and foreigners to visit in Ayutthaya to learn about the history, enjoy with the beautiful architect as well as taking photos. It opens daily from 8am -4pm. Visiting to this place we have to dress properly as it is as the palace, please.
If you have limit of time, you could choose a day visit to Ayutthaya province and Pang Pa Inn Palace. However you have more time and love travelling on road to see things on the way, we would suggested 6-7 days trip starts from Bangkok to Chiang Mai or from Chiang Mai to Bangkok to cover all the interesting places which include Ayutthaya and Pang Pa Inn Palace as well.
