Nonthaburi is directly northwest of Bangkok on the Chao Phraya River and it is the principal city of the district and province of the same name in Thailand. Not many foreign tourists visit Nonthaburi, thus it offers a glimpse of local culture and life, away from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok. You'll find a huge network of waterways in Nonthaburi, making it therefore a great way to experience the life from a different point of view.

Great way to see Bangkok!
A great way to see some of the local markets and different sights of Bangkok. Loved the fact we got to travel on a ferry, long boat and rocket boats. Also the local street food lunch was delicious!
