    Klong Saen Saep

    3. desember 2021, Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C

    Leaving Central Plaza, I made my way back to Petchaburi Station where I switched transport modes over to the klong taxi to get to my lunch reservation at Jay Fai.

    Looking at Jay Fai's location on the map, I pretty much knew where the restaurant was, but I didn't want to take any chances, so I left early in order to scout it out. The easiest way to get there is to take the klong taxi to the last stop on the western end of the route. Now, the klong taxi is by far my favorite mode of transport in Bangkok. It plies along the canals that were once the lifeline of Bangkok. Klong Saen Saep, which runs west to east, remains a vital route for many commuters. Back when I lived in Bangkok, it was the fastest way to get around. I only needed to battle traffic for about an hour in order to get to the nearest pier. From there, it was a smooth ride through the smelly, polluted waterway. Riding the klong taxi is, for me, a great thrill. I love watching the canal side communities, looking at people on the walkways next to the canal, spotting the various food establishments, and even some retail outlets. I can ride the klong taxi all day and not be bored.

    After disembarking from the MRT at Petchaburi Station, I walked a short distance to Asoke Pier where I boarded a westbound boat, changed to another at Pratunam Pier, and disembarked at the last stop near Wat Saket. From there, it was a quick walk to Jay Fai.
