If it's culture you're looking for, you won't be disappointed. Owners of antique shops at River City are a cultural milieu and you will learn about the region's diverse cultures from cordial conversation with them. One shop displays their bronze products e.g. human and animal figures, pots, lamps, etc. amid flowering and leave plants, on the rooftop. The juxtaposition and combination of bronze sculptures and plant pots forms a bronze garden that gives you a real buzz. Standing on the open-air space of the rooftop you have a panoramic view of Bangkok and the Chao Phraya River. From dawn to nighttime the two piers at River City are the starting point of small long-tailed and medium boats, Thai-style barges and luxurious cruisers. The sight of their gliding and drifting in and out of sight makes this part of the river vibrant and fascinating during the day and illuminated at night.
