Bangkok's 'green lung' — a jungle peninsula in a bend of the river where you cycle past mangroves and monitor lizards instead of malls.
Tip Take the tiny longtail ferry across from the Bangkok side with rented bikes — it feels like leaving the city behind in five minutes. Ride the elevated concrete paths slowly; they wind through mangroves and stilt-house gardens with almost no traffic. Hit it on a weekend so you can graze through Bang Nam Phueng floating market mid-loop.
