Amphawa is a great place to go and stay overnight as the area is rich in local history with many temples and attractions.
Bangkok floating markets are a popular tourist attraction drawing many thousands of visitors each year and this lifestyle is unique to those communities that live on the water.
If you have never been to visit a floating market then it is one of those places that you have to visit at least once when you come to Bangkok.
The most well known Bangkok floating market is Damnoen Saduak which is actually not too far away from the little town of Amphawa itself.
