The Khong Chiam region is still largely unaffected by tourism and, for those willing to explore it, offers spectacular scenery and the promise of peaceful days spent well away from the noise and chaos of the urban environment. With its waterfalls, cliffs and rock paintings, Pha Taem is the kind of place you simply never tire of exploring.

Are you ready for the trip of a lifetime? Travelling in an auto rickshaw will make you feel Bangkok, the hyperactive capital, buzz with life. Next step: the south of Thailand, which is even more charming… Bays, coves, bungalows on deserted beaches, clear water and colourful corals, underwater caves and rocks springing from the sea. Your journey to Thailand will allow you to experience the flavour of salty water, diving and blissful idleness.You will continue your journey north to Chiang Mai, where you will learn so much: there are so many cooking classes and massage courses to choose from. Later, you will take one of the most beautiful roads in the north, Chiang Maia Mae Hong Son, a journey brave travellers will take on two wheels. Between discovering misty, jungle-covered hillsides and villages nestled deep in splendid valleys: your stay in Thailand will be almost supernaturally beautiful.

I'm really not very fond of Damnoen Saduak market. It's the floating market where all the tour operators go. So, if you are after dozens of boats with all sorts of fruit and vegetables, etc., then this will do the trick, even if it's just photographically speaking. But it's no good for me. For me, it's not a real Thai floating market any more because it's only there for the tourists - it's artificial. Damnoen Saduak no longer has the charm of genuine floating markets, of which there are quite a few in the region... The only advantage of this market is that it's the only one open all week, but only in the mornings. For a more authentic experience, you need to mix with the local population. I think you should go to the market at Amphawa, which is not far away, or even to the little floating market of Tha Kha.
