Plan your stay
Getting there and around
Nakhon Sawan lies on the main north-south route between the Bangkok region and northern Thailand, about 240 kilometres from the Bangkok region by road. Buses and minivans run from Bangkok's northern bus terminals, and the city is also served by trains on the northern line, with the station in the city centre. Driving is straightforward via Highway 1. Once in Nakhon Sawan, local transport is mainly by songthaew, tuk-tuk and motorbike taxi; taxis are limited. Having your own vehicle or arranging a driver makes it easier to reach Bueng Boraphet and other outlying sights, while the city centre itself is compact enough to explore on foot.
When to go
The cool season from November to February is the most comfortable time to visit, with lower humidity and pleasant evenings. The hot season from March to May brings high temperatures, while the rainy season from June to October sees frequent showers and greener scenery. The city hosts its traditional boat races on the Chao Phraya, usually held in the cool season, which draw crowds. Birdwatching at Bueng Boraphet is often best in the cooler months when migratory birds are present.
