The Chao Phrayaalso known as the River of Kings, is the major river in Thailand. It is formed by four major tributaries, which flows through Bangkok and then into the Gulf of Thailand.
Thai people have been using their boats to travel on the waterways throughout the country for hundreds of years, long before modern roads existed.
In the past, people of Bangkok usually settled by the Chao Phraya River and gradually spread into the core of the country. In the past it was, and still is, a very important waterway for the people of central Thailand. Several people call the banks of the Chao Phraya River home. Many people use the river to get to and from work almost every day. For others, it is a way of life and, ultimately, their main source of income.
Taking a cruise along the legendary Chao Phraya River is the most pleasant way to explore the city once known as ""Venice of the East"". The majestic charm of the river adds perspective to exploration of the city's premier attractions. By taking a boat along the waterways, tourists will still be able to catch a few glimpses of the old Thai way of life. It is one of the best ways to experience the local culture, history, and of course, a great way to spend a day in Thailand.
One unique experience at the Chao Phraya River is boarding the dinner cruise on the river. The dinner features a grand buffet including Thai cuisine and other international cuisine. There is live band playing some awesome jive and is a complete entertaining night.
