Other Information:
For over 700 years, the kingdom of Thailand has been a water- borne culture and even now the Chao Praya river is still the nation's main communication artery. A cruise on the Mekhala is the ideal start to a journey that could lead to a trip to Chiang Mai, the River Kwai or the Khmer Temples of Korat. As the Mekhala idles its way up to Ayuthaya, a wondrous array of folklore and river life unfolds along its banks. Imposing skyscrapers and classic monuments soon give way to a gentle rural pace. Houses on stilts echo with the laughter of children playing at the water' s edge; women bathe in traditional sarongs while the men-folk fish lazily from sampans. Cruise can be made inopposite direction as well. The Luxury River Barges Mekhala
