00:00A few days ago, my friend invited me on a little adventure, an island boat tour around
00:11Koh Kret, Thailand's only man-made island.
00:15Tucked away in Nantaburi, just north of Bangkok, this island has always intrigued me, with
00:20its blend of history, mon culture, and riverside charm.
00:25Koh Kret's pottery villages, where clay artisans still shape earth into delicate bowls and
00:30ancient designs.
00:32Stacks of terracotta lined the banks like silent guardians of tradition.
00:36The further the boat circled, the more hidden charms appeared.
00:41Lush banana groves and mango trees bowed over the water, offering shade.
00:45Tiny temples and spirit houses peeked through greenery, glowing gold in the sunlight.
00:50Occasionally, children waved from the shore.
00:53Their laughter echoing across the river.
00:57After nearly an hour, the loop around Koh Kret closed back at the pier.
01:02Six kilometers, yet it felt like traveling through centuries.
01:06An island where modern Thailand and old Mon traditions lived side by side, surrounded and
01:12protected by the eternal embrace of the Chow Freya River.
01:16The journey left behind not just memories of sights and sounds, but the feeling of stepping
01:21into a slower rhythm of life, one that moves gently with the river's flow.
01:25You can book the Koh Kret boat tour upon arrival at Wat Poramai Yikawat Temple, or simply ask the local people for more information.

02:14Oh
02:44I don't know.
03:14I don't know.
03:44I'm going to get to the end of the day, so I'm going to get to the end of the day.
