Kaew Chan Waterfall and traditional Mon (Burmese) village near border

On this public holiday we will do a car pooling trip to Ratchaburi province, Suan Phueng district in Thailand's border close to Myanmar. As it is the countryside, there is so much of natural and cultural things to explore here ! Nature and culture immersion is our theme besides cafe hopping, social networking and language exchange. Our vehicle is already half-filled and we are looking for more positive vibes people!

Schedule:
7am: We will depart in an air-conditioned van or car from pickup point near Asok, Nana or Phloenchit BTS.
9.30am: Arrive at Oh Poi Market: Traditional Mon (Burmese) market in a serene riverside forest setting, with bamboo stalls for traditional food and crafts. The market is steeped in tradition and feels like a scene from Spirited Away !
10.15am: After packing some food for our picnic lunch, we drive about 20 minutes for Kaew Chan Waterfall.
10.45am: We will do a simple 50 minute hike to top tier or any tier to enjoy some swimming/dipping and picnic lunch surrounded by nature.
12nn: Picnic lunch
12.45pm: We will head back to waterfall entrance. Bathrooms available.
1.45pm: We will drive to nearby cafes for coffee. There is plenty to choose from - specialty coffee cafes, organic fruit farms etc basically we will choose cafes with good vibes/good views surrounded by lush nature.
After coffee, we will head back to Bangkok in the afternoon and expect to reach before 6.30pm.
