Ratchaburi, the city of dragon jars and floating markets

Damnoen Saduak Floating Market is the first thing that comes to mind when thinking of Ratchaburi, Thailand's first floating market. Naturally, this place is bustling with tourists from all over the world, owing to its charm and uniqueness unlike anywhere else in the world.

💜 The Ratchaburi National Museum, located in Mueang Ratchaburi District, stands out with its striking pink building, which many tourists can't resist taking beautiful photos of. This museum preserves and disseminates knowledge about the arts and culture of Ratchaburi Province, formerly serving as the provincial hall.
Inside, the museum exhibits various stories about the history of Ratchaburi Province, including history, archaeology, ethnology, geology, folk art, and ancient tools. In front of the museum, there are many beautiful artworks, perfect for taking photos. It's a must-visit destination.

💛 Bo Klueng Hot Springs is another natural attraction in Ratchaburi, offering a chance to soak in the hot mineral waters sourced from the mountains. Bo Klueng Hot Springs offers a variety of hot springs, including earthen pools, tiled pools, and foot baths, each with varying temperatures.
This natural spring is powered by mineral water that seeps from underground through the cracks in the rocks from the Tenasserim Mountain Range to the hot springs below. You can bathe in the mineral water and soak in the lush green surroundings, or simply soak your feet in the relaxing hot springs. This is a must-visit destination during the winter, guaranteed to be truly amazing.

Khao Ngu, or Khao Ngu Stone Park, is an archaeological site and another highly recommended recreational area in Ratchaburi. The atmosphere feels like a relaxing stroll amidst rocky mountains in a foreign country.
A highlight is the bridge over a pond in the middle of a valley, a beautiful floating walkway amidst the valley, making it a must-see photo spot.
💛 Oh Poi Market, Suan Phueng, is another community attraction steeped in the lifestyle of the Suan Phueng people. This area is primarily populated by Karen people. This area maintains a simple yet unique lifestyle, as it's located next to a stream with year-round water flowing through it, and is surrounded by large trees, creating a cool and refreshing atmosphere.
A unique activity in Thailand that can't be found anywhere else is the offering of alms to monks on bamboo rafts. Monks collect alms by boat, using bamboo rafts. We can also offer alms to monks around 7 a.m. There are also shops and restaurants where you can enjoy local food and DIY activities under the shade of the trees by the stream.

🩶 Grand Canyon, Ratchaburi. This place was formed by excavating rocks. When it rains, the rainwater is trapped and turns into a small blue lake, resembling the Grand Canyon.
