Bang Kachao in Bangkok, Thailand is perhaps the most unique thing in the whole city. This sprawling jungle gives you a feeling of being in a rural area, but in fact is just a short 5 minute boat ride across the Chao Phraya River to one of the biggest cities in Asia. It is well worth a visit and makes for a very unique day trip that I would highly recommend.

After all...I'm Retired, Working For You.
I am at Bang Krachao nearly every weekend to chill and relax. It`s about 10 to 15 min away from where i live. Its such a nice place!
There are some nice places to eat and take pictures and to just hang around,
like the "baan makham",
"Hiddenwoods"
"Bangkok tree house" ,
the "พบรัก ณ บางน้ำผึ้ง"
amazing comment. my hope with this channel is that each video STARTS a conversation that others add to. so your useful information added onto this topic is EXACTLY what i'm hoping we get more of here. cheers!
Love these videos, Chris. You’re a great ambassador. Stay safe and well, brother.
cheers Burt....thanks!
Very interesting channel Chris and very good video quality! Could you write me please what camera or smartphone do you use to video recording? And what program do you use for post-production? Greetings from Poland
:)
Great job 🙂
pro tip : you can watch series on Flixzone. Been using them for watching all kinds of movies lately.
@Tatum Nehemiah Definitely, I have been using Flixzone for since november myself =)
Chris, further up the Chao Phraya, there is an island called Koh Kret. It’s an island that was formed when a channel was cut across a meandering section of the river. Since it’s isolated, it’s very much like old Thailand. They are famous for a unique type of pottery and also have an awesome local brewery there called Chit Beer. Please check it out.
good tip, thanks!
That's just amazing!! The idea of this park in the city that's cleaning the air like that, and the peacefulness of it... I'm in awe.
So nice
I love that place, really green, and the drone images just perfect.... Hi Hayley 😊👋
thanks...yeah, the drone at least allowed us to virtually take a peek at the park!
My condo are neatly with this place
Just across the big river, i love to ride the bike in the park that close now...
I love ur channel Chris
Hi Hailey
So Great to see you two taking a nice day together. Beautiful Place.
Great editing on the video
Thanks Chris 👍
thanks so much for the nice comment!
Epic Video, Chris! I love me some Bang Krachao. Been with Jib a few times. We actually filmed a short eco tourism video out there for one of the universities back in the day and Jib co-hosted, we stayed at the Tree House hotel out there, tons of fun.
I m french and i anderstand you because you speak slowly and clearly thanks chris

My pleasure!!
Hayley looks GREAT in her hiking gear!
What a lovely relaxing video. Great drone footage.
cheers Martin, thanks!
It's a cool place. We bicycled around, lots of fun.
I love Bang Krachao, well made Chris. Pity the market was closed you should definitely go back when it's open. Great selection of food and it's famous for it's honey.
Cheers Thairish!!
I've seen a couple videos about this place, but you're the first person to explain what it is, to show it on a map. Thank you to you and Haley for the tour. The overhead drone shots explained a lot too.
Glad it was helpful!
Chris the feeling we get from being in that little boat with you is just sublime! Thank you so much!
Your videos really make my day can’t wait to get back there enjoy your day
Glad to hear it
Brilliant! Another side of BKK.
Indeed!

It's great to follow your discovered places ...good therapy in these times
Next time in Bangkok, I will visit here! Thanks for your video, Chris!
Great vid. again.thx.Chris n Hailey.🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏👌👌✌✌✌👍👍👍😷😷
Beautiful, feel so ignorant, had the privilege of visiting Bangkok many times and did not know this place even existed. My favourite green space in the city is Lumpini Park, now another area to experience. Look forward to it, soon hopefully
Glad you enjoyed it!
You're fine Anne, plenty of Thais don't even know it's there haha. My wife and I are Thai, I just found out about this place about two years ago.
ขอบคุณที่ถ่ายทอดให้ ผู้คนได้รับรู้ โดยทั่วไป
Superb video. The perfect giant lung for nature & WILDLIFE to breathe... and for love-BIRDS like you & Haelee to take a break from your own ‘WILD LIFE’ ...
555 / haha / ㅋㅋㅋ
hahahahahahaha nice one!
I remember Kong Toy, it’s where my dog was sent floating down the river after his Funeral 😭😭 I am starting to cry. Thank you for visiting my dog’s new home for me. Cool video btw
My dog’s funeral is also at Kong Toy temple
Spectacular drone footage showing the park (and proximity to the city)... amazing.
Oh what a nice place👍 and so close to the busy city center 😊 i think i need to go there soon😊🌴🙏🇹🇭
Excellent production!! Enjoyed the episode immensely
Brilliant vlog !!
wow, thanks Brian!
Thank you for making this video. I am wanting to do something like this in English. You made me learn English from you.
I'm living that place
Thank for visit
ไว้มาใหม่หลังหมดโควิดนะครับ
จะสนุกกว่านี้แน่นอน
It's nice to see you go out to explore love it
Iam very thankful to you Chris...
Morning Morning i seen Lord Buddha Face ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love from India. I LovebThailand
cheers Captain!
There are also Thai betta fish museum,
Handcraft workshop for making herbal incense and Tie dye and also a very good riverside cafe in the jungle.
(Well,that is all in the time before COVID )
Did a bicycle tour through this area a few years ago .. amazing place
Amazing such a place exists so close to Bangkok. You really nailed it with those drone shots Chris.....thanks again.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Kao mun gai, done properly, is superb. Up in Pai we have one shop that's been going for some years - they serve 2 noodle dishes and kao mun gai - nothing else. And it's not unusual to have to queue to get a seat.
always wannt to take a look here as well! thanks for sharing
We LOVE that place! Cant wait to return back! Thanks for bringing our minds back Chris!
You bet!
I'm impressed
This place is obviously a jungle in the city.
You are lucky to be there ,eating nice food and having a better life over there
Great video Chris Thank you
Beautiful to see such tranquility so close to bustling Bangkok, you are very fortunate to be visiting now without the tourists.
Will definitely visit on my next trip.
great call, it's worth a visit
Love this video. I would want to live there.
Good present.. Nice video...so cool... Thanks
Wow thanks Chris for the video. I used to think Bangkok is all about skyscrapers and markets, never thght they have green wealth in the city. In my list for my next visit whenever the country opens up.
Wow , amazing drone footage , Chris !
Another cool video, stay healthy Hayley and Chris
another great video and good to see the boss out with you lol
Beautiful place.. Very nice 🤗🤗💖💖
Thanks for the cool day trip!
any time Mark!
Love that place - too bad the park and market were closed. Nice drone footage.
i love Koew Man Kai as my thai breakfast - looks a great place to explore
Thankyou for creating such video
Who knew there was so many parks in a big city! It’s like you are in two different places, love it!
Drone shot is amazing.
Exceptional!!!
Another great video Chris!
Your drone video clearly shows contrast between both sides of the river. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
Whoah missed this place will ha e to check it out next time
great review. not many people know of or have ventured into Bang Kachao. It is certainly worth the trip to see another side of BKK. We just love to go for the boatride on the river. The parkland is an added bonus 555
I live in Bangkok and I just know that there is such a place
Really liked the drone view. It is a beautiful area that seems to be mostly unknown by visitors outside the country so good of you to highlight it. The 1st time I went I drove and parked the car to walk through the market. Too many corners later I couldn't find the car again and was in panic mode for about 1/2 hour before locating it. Good advice to take the boat.
The Green Lung is a beautiful place. Way to take the drone footage to show us! Well done
You got it Jimmy
When I saw the little boat, my first thought was, "what if this thing capsizes?" Then, my next thought was, "No life jackets!!!" Being someone who can't swim, I'd be really wary of getting in such a tiny boat in a third world country with no life jacket. I realize this is Thailand and I need to adjust my expectations, but I also value my life, especially when it comes to venturing into large bodies of water in tiny rickety, old boats.
Great video as always Chris! Keep up the good work!
You can visit this place by car or Taxi but it is take a long way from center of Bangkok and pay around 300 baht cost for Taxi. But it is only 20 baht by boat.
@@thasspongthapsang6769 amazing comment. my hope with this channel is that each video STARTS a conversation that others add to. so your useful information added onto this topic is EXACTLY what i'm hoping we get more of here. cheers!
Thanks!
It looks dangerous. This area seems like a country side in BKK. Unfortunately, safety is less concern by community. But I can assure you we have no history of capsizing from long tail boat. 😆
@@RetiredWorkingForYou With my pleasure Sir. ✌️✌️. 🍺🍺🍺
This is fun travelling in long tail boat to cross Chao praya river. 😍
it's so fun!!
@@RetiredWorkingForYou Hang in there Chris! I guess next month, the partial lock down will be lifted. The number of COVID positive in Thailand have been reducing daily. 😙
Very well done ! I have to go there !
Oh I forgot. The drone video was the best I have ever seen. The editing was really professional. Bobby
Wow, thanks!
Amazing view from Bang kra Jow to Bangkok city, History of Bangkok exposed in my brain, Chis
Thanks guys. Excellent!!
Our pleasure!
Great music choice ,we have planned to stay in this area next in Bangkok
Wear a mask and be safe krub Khun Chris. I enjoys your presentation krub.
Bang Kachao is beautiful; a great place to bicycle too. Sri Nakhon Khuan Khan Park is just gorgeous. The island is easily accessible by ferry from Sanphawut road, which is not far from the Bang Na BTS station. On weekends, be sure to hit the market! Rent a bike or hire one of the many motorcycle drivers just off the pier to take you there. :-)
Oooh! Love the music you used on this video, thank you for sharing this. I have been there a few times, but the view of the park from above, wow, what a breathtaking new perspective.
I always wondered about that green area in the middle of Bangkok. Nice to see some of it, and the drone shots made this video amazing! That skyline clip was super.. 7:42 I could put that on canvas and have it on the wall.
I asked my native Bangkok friends about that area some time ago, why its not been developed more and the answers i got was partly that the land cant maintain heavy built areas due to being more swampy area and partly because it is the lung of Bangkok and its not worth developing that land seeing how bad the air already is in Bangkok.
cool comment!
Thanks for the tip! Gonna go there this weekend 😊
Hope you like it!
Wow! The drone shots. Breathtaking!
Awesome to see this place. Defintetly on my bucket list. But it's so sad to see this little shops and table in the park empty. Just imagine that every empty table is maybe a little family who lost their income becuase of this bad times
Very nice place and nice video as well 😄😄
Thank you! Amazing video! Please go there when it reopens.
Hi new subscriber here....just wanted to say I love your vids. Love the "chilled out, no bullshit" approach whilst still maintaining high production values and a crazy upload rate!. Hope you make this channel work big time! I recently relocated to BKK too so this vid really sparked my interest in exploring more of BKK.
thanks a ton man. your comment made my day. welcome to the party!
@@RetiredWorkingForYou Hi Chris. Thanks for the reply. As a work colleague of mine in considering relocating his family to Bangkok and schooling his kids there for 2021/22, would it be possible for you to share a video explaining your experiences of how to apply for education/parent related visas? Many thanks.
Bang Nam Phueng Floating market is definetely worth a visit!
Chris you done an Amazing video in an Amazing place ,so relaxing make me in a good mood that we need in this bad period,Bangkok miss me a lot,
