Khun Dan Prakarn Chon Dam

Set along the quaint canals of the Mae Klong River, the market is famous for its vibrant atmosphere, traditional wooden shop houses, and longtail boats selling freshly grilled seafood, Thai desserts, and local snacks. Visitors can stroll along the canal banks, shop for handmade crafts and souvenirs, or enjoy a boat tour that passes riverside temples and local homes. As evening falls, the market lights up with a nostalgic glow, and many visitors stay for the magical experience of watching fireflies twinkle among the mangrove trees. Unlike some of the more commercialized floating markets near Bangkok, Amphawa retains a distinctly local charm, offering an authentic glimpse into Thai riverside culture and daily life.

​Wat Maneewong

Originally established as Wat Nong Krapho in 1895, it was officially renamed Wat Maneewong in 1954 and now spans over 6 hectares. The temple’s most famous feature is the Rattanamanee Mahanakhon Badan Nakhara, commonly known as the Naga Cave or Naga Palace—a dazzling, cave-like sanctuary filled with over a thousand intricately sculpted Naga serpents and bathed in colorful lighting that creates a mystical atmosphere. At its center stands a golden Buddha image, Phra Rattanamanee Mahabadarin, surrounded by massive serpent guardians and symbolic reliefs that depict karmic lessons. Another highlight is the semi-open hall housing Luang Pho Phan Lan, a majestic Buddha statue flanked by dragon-wrapped pillars and celestial guardians. The golden ordination hall (ubosot) showcases Luang Pho Siwali as the principal image, with walls adorned with mythical kinnaris and elaborate gilded decorations.

These intricately designed statues, adorned in pink, are central to the park's sacred atmosphere. The park spans about 23 rai (around 3.7 hectares) and was established by Luang Phor Nell of Wat Sri Sudaram on land donated by Luang Phor Phu, embodying a spirit of community and religious devotion. Within the grounds is a museum displaying 108 different Ganesha postures, each representing various blessings and virtues. The Maha Thep Hall further enriches the site, enshrining the Hindu trinity—Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva—alongside sacred relics from nine countries, symbolizing the harmony between Hindu and Buddhist beliefs. Visitors often perform the ritual of whispering wishes into the ear of a statue of a mouse, Ganesha’s vehicle, in hopes of having their prayers delivered. ​
