Where the world can’t find you.<\/em>..<\/p>\nSamut Songkhram<\/h4>\n
An immense network of hundreds of meandering canals around the Mae Khlong leads you to the secrets of Samut Songkhram<\/strong>. Experience the traditional lifestyle along the banks of the river where fishermen with wooden boats grace the horizon, merchants sell fresh produce at the Amphawa Floating Market<\/strong> and thousands of fireflies magically illuminate the canals at night. Take a seat on the steps along the water while a delicious lunch of fresh seafood and noodles is prepared for you in a boat below. Enjoy the unique atmosphere while strolling through Maeklong Railway Market<\/strong>, taste freshly grown lychees and guavas in the interior, and admire numerous historic temples from the time of Rama II.<\/p>\nRatchaburi<\/h4>\n
Ratchaburi <\/strong>is a province full of contrasts, from lowlands in the east to the Tanaosi Mountains<\/strong> in the west. In between, you will be overwhelmed by picturesque landscapes filled with mysterious bat caves, towering waterfalls and natural hot springs. Sample sheep’s milk ice cream in Suan Phueng<\/strong> and watch paddling women wearing homemade scatter hats make their way among hundreds of boats – richly filled with fresh fruits and vegetables – from the Damnoen Saduak<\/strong> floating market. Admire the brilliant artworks by local artists scattered throughout downtown Ratchaburi and visit the city’s centerpiece, the enchanting Wat Phra That Mahathat<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Traditional lifestyle, vibrant markets & natural beauty in Samut Songkhram and Ratchaburi<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":89700,"parent":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"country":[246],"highlight_category":[602,600],"continent_category":[217],"class_list":["post-91647","highlights","type-highlights","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","country-thailand","highlight_category-gebied-en","highlight_category-hoogtepunt-en","continent_category-asia"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/highlights\/91647","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/highlights"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/highlights"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=91647"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/highlights\/91647\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":327105,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/highlights\/91647\/revisions\/327105"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/89700"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=91647"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"country","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/country?post=91647"},{"taxonomy":"highlight_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/highlight_category?post=91647"},{"taxonomy":"continent_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/continent_category?post=91647"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
