Bang Krachao, often referred to as the "Green Lung of Bangkok," is an artificial island formed by a loop of the Chao Phraya River and a canal to the west. It is located south of the Thai capital in the Phra Pradaeng district of Samut Prakan province and covers approximately 16 square kilometers.

This area is known for its lush vegetation, consisting of mangrove forests, small agricultural plots, and elevated walkways crossing the canals. Despite its proximity to Bangkok's bustling city center, Bang Krachao has retained its rural charm and offers a welcome escape from the urban hustle and bustle.

One of the main attractions for visitors is the Sri Nakhon Khuean Khan Park and Botanical Garden. This public park covers 148 rai (approximately 23.7 hectares) and features a 2.2-kilometer bicycle path. It is particularly popular with cyclists and birdwatchers.

Bang Krachao offers numerous options for cyclists. There are several bike rentals that allow visitors to explore the island independently. The elevated paths and quiet roads make cycling enjoyable and safe.

In addition to cycling, visitors can visit the Bang Nam Phueng Floating Market, which takes place on weekends and offers local produce and culinary specialties. Traditional temples such as Wat Bang Nam Phueng Nok and Wat Songtham Worawihan offer cultural insights and are worth a visit.

Getting to Bang Krachao is straightforward. From Bangkok, you can take a ferry from Wat Khlong Toei Nok Pier to reach the island. Bikes are often available for rent at the pier, so you can start exploring right away.

Fantastic concrete paths on stilts lead through nature into the endless wetlands.

Throughout the area are narrow elevated paths, about 1~2m of the ground, that zig zag through the green areas. When riding a bike and you choose these paths, you better feel comfortable in narrow areas, as you occassionally have oncoming traffic. Also these paths often turn 90 degrees, still narrow, and often without any railings. But still fun and amazing to ride. Highly recommend.
