The Border Province of Bangkok - Nonthaburi

by Wann

" Underconstruction ! "

.
Nonthaburi is one of the border provinces of Bangkok where the Chao Phraya River and various canals pass through, so life with water way along the river can be seen there and the last pier for the Chao Phraya Express Boat is there. So if you want to visit the province,make a day trip by taking an Express Boat from Bangkok up north to Nonthaburi will be a great idea, average time on boat less than 1 hour.

I have another page of a district, north of Nonthaburi, Pak Kret, a district where I have lived for few years.
