This video is all 3 parts for anyone that missed any of the videos I posted or just want to see the whole video. It is the complete video from the Nonthaburi Pier to the small island of Koh Kret north of Bangkok on the Chaopraya River.
One of the best ways to experience Bangkok is by boat. I was lucky enough to find a tour of Nonthaburi as a cultural heritage awareness event.

In the middle of which enthroned, back to back, are the 4 statues of the chinse goddess with 18 arms and a thousand smaller arms with a thousand eyes.
