Bang Kachao

Considered the greenest part of Bangkok and literally dubbed Bangkok’s “green lung”, this is a man-made island just outside the city. It has a huge park, temples, spirit houses, and a floating market. You can wander the nicely paved trails or rent a bike. It’s easiest to get to via long boats from Wat Klongtoey Pier to Kamnan Khao Pier (5-minute river crossing).
