A Voyage of Discovery and Delight: Reviving the Venice of the East with Poomjai Garden

Once hailed as the Venice of the East, Bangkok's lifeblood flowed through its intricate network of canals, a bustling artery of commerce, culture, and community. Today, these waters continue to tell the tales of the city's soul, especially along the vibrant Bangkok Yai Canal near Wat Paknam, just a stone's throw from the serene Poomjai Garden.

Where tradition meets the present – glide through the timeless canals of Bangkok and discover the city's soul from the comfort of a vibrant longtail boat.

The Heart of Our Community: The canals near us are more than just waterways; they're the lifeblood of our community, where generations of aunties have sold food and souvenirs, sustaining traditions decades old. These resilient women embody the spirit of Thonburi, their boats a symbol of a cherished lifestyle that thrives on the waters of the Bangkok Yai Canal and Wat Paknam area.
