Sing Buri
Spend half a day in Sing Buri to see the Bang Rachan monument and Wat Sai; add a night only for the weekend retro market.
Sing Buri is a small provincial capital on the Chao Phraya plain, 135‑180 km north of Bangkok. Its main draws are historic monuments linked to the Bang Rachan defence, a 400‑year‑old Wat Sai temple, and a weekend retro‑Thai market. A morning visit covers the sights; an overnight stay is optional for the market or to rest after a long bus ride.
