Located 30 km. from Bangkok is the pottery village of Ko Kret (Kret Island), an island located on the Chao Phraya River where pottery makers of Mon descent live. The Clay pottery made here has its own distinctive characteristics that are typically Mon. A half-day trip to Ko Kret can be delightful as this can be conducted by boat. Bicycles can also be rented to explore this little island where the Mon people still more or less maintain their traditional no-fuss lifestyle.
