Koh Kret is a small island in Nonthaburi just a half hour from the center of bangkok it's famous
for pottery which you can still see all over the island there are also no cars allowed on Koh Kret
which makes it a great place to bike enjoy all the cute cafes and you can even make your own pottery
it's another amazing way to escape the city without having to go far or spend a lot of money
let's go to Koh Kret we are at the Koh Kret pier in spanish croqueta we're trying to get to Koh
Kret which is another island in bangkok and we're walking around trying to find out how to get there
yeah so you can come here from sathorn or saphan taksin and you can get a big boat to here there's
like the purple bts line for nonthaburi goes like 15 minutes from here you can also take a bus
they're in victory monument and you can get directly here to the pier so you have many options
so we've been walking here which is like mainland and here is the island
yeah we are so close like they could just put a bridge here it really really is like so close
to the island yeah it's like 100 meters like it's way closer than bangkok the other island
so we didn't pay getting on but we paid getting off and it was three baht
each for less than a two minute quick ride across the river so we crossed right next to
the leaning temple thing so we're gonna check that out first and then get bikes get food
all of the above this is the leaning pagoda so it's famous because it like started leaning
like when they bought it and like never stopped leaning so now it's like this
it's cool it's like the pizza tower leaning tower of pisa we came out outside of the fence
so now we're just next to the water again but there's better views of the leaning temple
there's a dinosaur
who's gonna get someone there's a restaurant here and we heard some music by the river
so we're gonna check this out it's so green here i love it
uh what food did they have there we couldn't see the the menu i don't know yeah there wasn't a menu
really she was like we have pad thai or noodles um so we got two chicken pad thais yeah but
we're sitting here at a table and there's a bench over the river it's so funny everyone has their
shoes off because their feet are just hanging over the water so scary the pad thais just got
there's no coffee there's no coke zero so we ended up with a beer how was it
how does it compare to your favorite pad thai ever at the mahanakhon i don't know i love everywhere
so for me now this one is the better one yeah because you're eating it right now yeah that was
240 baht 240 bahts yeah so two pad thais and like a big beer for 240. that's good yeah not bad
maybe a bicycle but someone doesn't want a bike i don't want the bike now
it's so hot but yeah we will go see the rest of the island before he bought for a bicycle and what
you think it's 150 for an electric these are so weird though electric bikes are by the hour 150
an hour so we're gonna go get a coffee first and then decide now this is cute and says art street
this guy just threw some food in the water the fish are going crazy
it's so scary there's so many we got all these coffee shops here are so
cute and then right here in front of us like this is where the boats cross
what is that that's your latte no it's your lemonade oh that's my lemonade
i'm gonna serve you okay oh thank you don't spill it okay i thought it was your latte
it seems natural oh it's cute you wanna die okay let me know how it is
because it's super lemony very good i can kind of smell lemons already i'm excited
it was really good yeah this is exactly what i wanted yeah
yeah so refreshing i was gonna get water but this is much better right now
and the water wouldn't come in a cute little teapot you have these views
it's cute yeah you look good
that's interesting
yeah that's it okay what now we're gonna try to find a bike now
walking by chitbeer there's live music
and so many people oh my god you don't want to go for live music and a beer
maybe later yeah it's crazy though it's more people than we've seen on the whole island
what do you want what are they
they're cute yeah and one yeah what is this coconut
how are they good yeah your favorite dessert not my favorite i still prefer chocolate
so we're walking along and there's all this brick stuff and apparently it's a giant old
kiln where they used to make pottery in here but it's crazy and huge
so big it's bigger than Carles yeah it's cool though we need to make some pottery
where's a pottery making place
we got bikes finally from back here there's 40 baht each til 6 pm yeah which is only an
hour and a half but it should be enough time so here and on Koh Kret there are no cars on bang
krachao there are lots of cars here there aren't it's just motors and bicycles and people walking
so yeah which one do you like better i love this one i actually really like it here too yeah all
right we're biking along and there is i don't know what this is a hotel or something and it is insane
why there's literally durian everywhere yeah visit a large thai house in the garden
and durian more than 100 species oh my so i guess it's not a hotel it's like a giant house
we really like it here yeah i mean too oh so cool like surprisingly cool yeah like
really cool yeah i could totally spend like a day or so here and it's 30 minutes away
from our home that's crazy yeah and there's so many really cute cafes i think was just like
jungly like the other but yeah no it's super cute here yeah and i love that you cannot drive cars
here's like the perfect size for a bicycle yeah yeah all right let's go let's go
just brought the bikes back what are we doing it was super fun yeah there's another
giant kiln in here so cool so much pottery oh yeah yeah there's a ton of stuff is here open
oh yeah there's a guy in here yeah let's look in here quick
what do you want i don't know i mean just a little one kind of like those ones
what happened not just by pottery and these people speak english and they're making something and it
only takes like 15 minutes yeah 100 so i'm gonna try and make something too i'm sorry
because i cannot do it with my finger but now he can take videos yeah i'm gonna be the camera
this seems like a little suspicious
what do i do i don't know oh that it doesn't move
looks much better nice it's cute yeah yeah
can she work here now
we have to leave how long it would take to make it so it's great
okay so we're leaving the pottery place there that was so fun we weren't planning
on like making anything but we got the little bowl i made here i'm sad i couldn't make it
yeah because of his finger he couldn't um but we really want to come back here
and like do an overnight stay on the island and make more pottery it was so cool yeah
and that was so fun how long were we there like 30 minutes yeah over a half hour yeah they said
you can just keep playing and do whatever you want and let them know when you're done and then yeah
we get to take it home and everything and it was only 100 baht we're gonna put the facebook
here down yeah you can follow and see but yeah so fun it's on this street next to the elephant man
yeah oh sorry yeah here's on the wall the giant guy pointing to pottery down there
all right i want to put my mask on now another it's 6:45 everything here is kind of closing
yeah it's time to leave i guess yeah but that girl said that there are boats until like
9:30. so i don't think we have to worry about like being able to cross back over but yeah i still see
the boats so when we got here we only paid three baht but now starting at 6 p.m it's five baht
yeah i'm just saying it's different prices it looks so cool though like kind of sunsetty nice
hey we're waiting on the boat so we didn't know
but the little leaning tower of bangkok is all lit up so cute
look at sunset this is so nice they're just up here by the river even like
they're so cute here like why have we not been here before i know but now we know it yeah we
need to tell everyone to come here yeah come here come here yeah literally come here it's so cool
detour what does it mean like uh we're going over here instead of where we were going okay detour to
the river yeah we're gonna come see the sunset because it looks so nice it's so nice today and
you can just sit here along next to the river so i guess we're gonna wait here a little before we go
this is so nice here though even in bangkok you can't just like sit by the river like this
no like here it's so cool
this place is amazing
this is the sunset place you said just up here at the top
seriously but now we're just watching sunset and it's so nice here besides really it is like
