Ko Kret,The famous small island in Nonthaburi Province,Thailand


My family had a trip to Ko-Kret on December 2009.

Ko Kret is an island in the Chao Phraya river, to the north of Bangkok, Thailand, and belongs to Amphoe Pak Kret. The island is only reachable by boat, usually from the Wat Sanam Nau Pier. There are also boat tours around the island.You can reach Wat Sanam Nau Pier by many way.

1.Via Chao Phraya Express Boat (a transportation service in Thailand that operates on the Chao Phraya River) for green-yellow flag trip on its entire route from Pakkret to Sathorn.

2.Via the Bus to Pak-Kret station

3.Taxi

At Wat Sanam Nau Pier,there were a lot of people that wanted to go to Ko-Kret that day

This is the picture inside the boat.



On the island there are several temples (wat), such as Wat Poramai Yigawat.



There are so many famous things at Ko-Kret and make Ko-Kret the most popular tourist target in Nontaburi province.Such as the unique food Tot-man-nor-ka-la(fried fish patty) shop in this picture.



The famous potteries and earthenwares that contain water,coffee and milk for sale.This picture I bought a cup of milk in a Doraemon-style pottery.



Ko Kret island located at Nonthaburi Province, very close to Bangkok.I think it's one interesting place to visit via boat trip along Chao Phraya river in Thailand.
