5 Places to visit in Bangkok.
** JJ GREEN HAS CLOSED DOWN SINCE SEPTEMBER 2018! **
If you are planning your trip to Bangkok, you’ll probably hear the same things over and over again. The grand palace, reclining buddha and khao san road. Now we are not saying these places are bad, but we would just like to give you some alternatives.
Here is OUR list of places to visit in Bangkok.
1. Wat Prayoon
The adress is 24 Prajadhipok Rd, แขวง วัดกัลยาณ์ Khet Thon Buri, Krung Thep Maha Nakhon 10600.
You can easily reach it by the Chao Phraya River Express boat service by alighting at the Memorial Bridge pier and walking over the bridge across the river.
Wat Prayoon is open everyday and there is no entrance fee.
2. Saphan Taksin Park
The address is Soi Charoen Nakhon 13, the best way to get here, is to take the BTS or the Chao Phraya express boat to Saphan Taksin, and then walking across the bridge or by taking the local ferry boat.
3. Airplane Graveyard
Ramkhamhaeng Road | Hua Mak, Bang Kapi, Bangkok 10240,
The best way to get to the Airplane Graveyard is by Taxi.

It is open from 9 am till 4pm.

4. JJ GREEN
เลขที่ 1 ถนนกำแพงเพชร 3, แขวงจตุจักร, Chatuchak, Bangkok 10900
1 Kamphaeng Phet 3, Chatuchak, Bangkok
You can get here by taxi, MRT: Chatuchak or BTS: Mo Chit
Open from thursdays until sundays, from 6 pm till 1.30 am.
JJ Green is located next to the Chatuchak weekend market, which closes around 5pm. So it's perfect to combine these 2 for a big day of shopping!
5. Co van Kessel
The address is: Charoen Krung soi 24.
Co van Kessel bike tours and boat tours provides a refreshing alternative to the tired tourist experience. We do not battle the crowds at clichéd destinations promoted in guide books, but turn your attention to quaint local communities and charming excursions into the fascinating lifestyle and culture of real Thai people. Every day is different and every tour is a surprise as we focus not on destinations, but lose ourselves in the enchantment of the journey itself.
Co van Kessel, an innovative and adventurous Dutchman, pioneered bicycle tours in Bangkok more than 30 years ago. As a longtime resident and self-professed lover of Bangkok, he understood very well the picture of accelerated urban development (gridlocked traffic, concrete towers, and choking pollution) that has plagued the recent image of the city. He also had a hunch that this was not what Bangkok or Thailand was all about.
Making it his goal to re-discover Bangkok, Co spent thousands of hours on his mountain bike exploring the vast network of local streets, alleyways, footpaths and canals between the main urban thoroughfares. What he found, lurking behind the facade of modernization, were hidden worlds of peace and tranquility, a picture of “real” Thai life that has remained unchanged for countless decades; an identity of a city that is true to the Thai people, yet largely unknown to outsiders.
Whether it’s the colorful sights and smells of the local markets, the fascinating life of locals along the canals, or the surprising existence of bountiful green belts, Co discovered the essence of what makes Bangkok one of Asia’s most captivating cities. Since then, it has been his mission to share these discoveries with the rest of the world.
What we do:
Our mission at Co van Kessel Bangkok Tours is to provide our guests with a singularly unique travel experience in Thailand. All our tours use Co’s extensive topographical knowledge of the greater Bangkok area as well as his keen eye for the interesting to take you where nobody else can or will.
We aim not to bore you with talk, but to immerse you in an experience where your individual fascinations emerge.
Bicycles, boats, and our feet become the tools we use to gain access to the previously inaccessible, behind-the-scenes lifestyle of the Thai. Here the roots of an ancient culture will become evident in a way you never could have imagined.
