One day in Ratchaburi is just right.

Ratchaburi, a small province near Bangkok, is another popular tourist destination. The main destination for many people is probably "Suan Phueng" because it has a wide variety of accommodations and a comfortable climate. However, this time I didn't go to Suan Phueng because I only had one day and wanted to drive comfortably without getting too tired.

I departed from Bangkok via the Pinklao-Nakhon Chai Si route, stopping at a popular coffee shop for a quick bite.


** After the Rain [Putthamonthon Sasaya 5] **

Nestled near the Don Wai Floating Market, this charming café boasts a glasshouse design with outdoor seating areas flanking its sides and along the waterfront. Lush greenery and a serene ambiance pervade the space, enhanced by a scenic canal at the back. For an added touch of leisure, paddle boats are available for guests to enjoy.

The menu of the shop will focus on beverages, tea, coffee, fruit juice, and various cakes.

1. Coconut coffee smoothie, 75 baht. A smoothie made with coconut flesh and water, fragrant, creamy, and delicious.

2. Hot Latte 50 Baht

3. Hot cocoa 45 baht

4. Lime juice 50 baht

5. Coconut cake 75 baht. Light coconut aroma, light flavor.

6. White Chocolate Oreo 110 baht. This one is delicious and rich. Packed with Oreo.

Directions: If you are coming from Borommaratchachonnani Road, take Route 5 and pass Central Plaza Salaya on your right. Then, turn left onto Route 3316 and drive for 300 meters. The restaurant will be on your right.

Secret Space [Ratchaburi]


A popular roadside restaurant before entering Ratchaburi city, with many positive reviews. I couldn't resist stopping by to explore the maze.

The signage for this restaurant is somewhat limited, making Google Maps a highly recommended tool for navigation. Without Google Maps, reaching the restaurant would be a significant challenge.


After parking in the parking lot, you will find the entrance to the maze. [If you don't want to go through this way, you can enter the restaurant from the left side of the maze.] The maze is not very complicated, but it's a little gimmick to play before you reach the restaurant.

The restaurant offers a wide variety of dishes, including both savory and sweet options. The menu focuses on simple, single-plate meals. However, as I had already enjoyed coffee earlier in the morning, I opted for a light snack instead.

1. Spicy dried chili pasta with sausage 89 baht

2. Fried sausage 69 baht

3. Fried dumplings 59 baht

The shop also offers horseback riding tours of the garden and a supermarket with a wide variety of plants to choose from. If you're looking for specific plant varieties, you can easily find them here.

**Sacred Heart Church, Wat Phleng, 100th Anniversary (100-Year-Old Christ Church)**

The temple is located approximately 10 kilometers from the city center, situated along the Kwai Om Canal.

The following is a translation of the provided text from Thai to English:

Inside the school, I traveled to the church on Sunday, arriving around noon.

The church was closed, so I was unable to visit the interior. I was a little disappointed.

Therefore, I only captured the surrounding atmosphere of the church.

Ah Tee Ko Pi

This is the translation of the Thai phrase "ร้านอาตี๋โกปี๊" into English.

Note: Without further context, it is difficult to determine the exact meaning or nature of "Ah Tee Ko Pi." It could refer to a specific restaurant, a type of food or drink, or something else entirely.


A vintage-style coffee shop in Ratchaburi, located opposite the Ratchaburi Museum or the old provincial hall. The shop recreates an old-fashioned atmosphere with a meticulous eye for detail. It is decorated with antique items throughout, including old appliances, furniture, and genuine antique cabinets.


The restaurant offers a wide variety of dishes, including a wide selection of beverages.


1. Bak kut teh (119 baht): This dish was a bit bland, lacking the richness and depth of flavor expected.

2. Stir-fried rice with chili paste sauce (69 THB). This dish is delicious and not too spicy. It is served with salted egg, Chinese sausage, and vegetables.

3. Dried fish rice (49 baht). This dish reminded me of the dried fish rice at Ko Ben's in Phuket. This version uses fish instead of pork, and the dipping sauce includes chopped ginger and a mild fermented soybean paste. The broth is fragrant and sweet, and the dish is delicious.

4. Braised pork leg with mantou (79 THB). The pork leg was a bit bland, but the mantou was delicious.

5. Steamed pork buns (30 baht) - The steamed pork buns were delicious. The filling was a bit sweet, but it was rich and flavorful.

6. Dim sum baskets are 30 baht each. Other dim sum items are priced moderately.

7. Pad Thai with fresh shrimp 69 baht The shop said the fresh shrimp was out of stock, so it wasn't Pad Thai with fresh shrimp. The noodles were chewy, rich, and delicious. I recommend it.

8. Iced cocoa 30 baht

Driving into Bangkok, the traffic was very congested, so I decided to stop for a bite to eat along the way. After doing some research, I ended up at this restaurant. The Ruean Thap Thim restaurant is located right on the banks of the Nakhon Chai Si River. The atmosphere is lovely, and it was a pleasure to enjoy my meal while watching the gentle flow of the water. The restaurant's menu focuses on Thai and Chinese cuisine.


1. Spicy green curry with dried catfish (150 baht). The catfish has a pleasantly chewy texture, and the curry paste is rich and flavorful.

2. "Moo Ta Muang" (Spicy Pork Salad) for 100 Baht. The taste is similar to Chiang Rai-style fried pork, with a crispy exterior and tender interior. It was delicious.

3. Two-sided sea bass (350 baht) is a crispy fried fish served with dipping sauce and sweet and sour fish.

4. Long eggplant salad 100 baht

5. Spicy and sour soup with catfish (200 baht)

I chose the clear broth option. The catfish was a bit too oily for my taste. If you don't like river fish, you might want to avoid this dish, as the oiliness can be overwhelming.

6. Blended watermelon, 50 baht

The dishes are served in large portions, so it's best to order gradually. The taste is good and the price is reasonable, averaging around 200-250 baht per person.

Opening hours: 11:00 AM - 11:00 PM

Kitchen closes at 9:30 PM.
