A pale shadow of its glorious past. They need to bring alpacas back to live up to its name. People expect to see them. Now its just a mini petting zoo. By the way the guides are really friendly so do tip them!.

Despite all difficulties, it seems that they are struggling to keep the place running due to lack of visitors. Staff were doing their best to help visitors and guide them around. Very friendly people, beautiful scenery. This place could offer much much more, once they can cover the cost caring for all animals. It shows how staff do make sure all animals are protected by keeping good hygiene and controlled human interactions.

Went on a weekday so there wasn’t much visitors. The exhibit were clean and not smelly. Most of the animals looked healthy and happy. The caretakers were also mostly friendly and will bring the animals to you for petting or feeding. With the cheapest tickets, you can feed most of the animals for free (goat, ostriches, sheep) and pet all of them at close range. Only some special animals like capybaras or deer, you have to pay 50 Bhat for a bowl of vegetables/fruits. Will highly recommend if you are in the area.

Nice place to visit with kids. They have many animals. Flamingo, kangaroo, rabbits, horse, ostrich, pigs, cats, sheeps, horses, ducks etc. Entry ticket three types 290,390,590 thb per person.

Alpaca hill is great but there is only one alpaca left he seemed tired and old. The place is well maintained. Good for family weekend. Tourist can get close to animal feeding touching them. This is great. If you pass by it worth a visit. If you are here just for the zoo then you must love animals.

Fun place to visit, not very well maintenance. Animals are hungry. Feeding the geese is so much fun. Over60year old citizen entrance is free.

Center of Suan Pueng, very nice place for family trip, include many fun and entertain dog and sheep show, my family really enjoy it. Entree fee is reasonable and worth the activities provided. Warning for children and adult feeding the sheep, they will give us dry grass is or straw to feed the sheep, but if you grab onto it and the sheep pull one of the gran, that thing are very sharp and will cut your finger very deep.

Today we arrived at 9:30 to see the animals, and it was simply amazing. I have nothing negative to say. The price is really good and worth it, the staff are wonderful, welcoming, and extremely professional with the guests. We had an amazing time, lots of fun, and the kids really enjoyed it. I would also like to speak with the owner.

Great place for kids and animals. Nice farm with lots of animals. We see many kinds of animals and there are shows either hourly or even 30 minutes. It's recommended to go there before 9:30 as 10:00am show does not repeat again today. Dogs are amazing and so are many other animals. Enjoy the place very much, two piglets are not positioned well so that all the visitors do not tend to feed them and i think pellets are not good for long term? Games are fun and we didn't win anything but it's nice to feed animals, we hope that slow days, the animals are fed well from the farm. Overall, happy trip and clean area. African goats are awesome and well placed. Coffee shops are nice and plenty of staff. Dogs are my favourite at this place. Will try to visit again.

After parking, we were promptly greeted by a golf cart ready to take us to the reception area. What stood out immediately was the professionalism and grace of the staff—even the golf cart driver didn’t sit idly in the cart, creating a sense of urgency. Instead, they stood nearby in a relaxed manner, within eyesight but without pressure, subtly signaling their presence while allowing us to take our time. It’s a small detail, but one that speaks volumes about how well the resort trains its team in hospitality and guest comfort. At reception, we were welcomed with a delicious welcome drink and some incredibly addictive banana snacks that we couldn’t stop nibbling on. The reception itself was grand and spacious, exuding elegance and warmth. As we stepped inside, we were met with refreshingly cool air and the soothing scent of Jo Malone. A Land Rover Defender was proudly on display—yes, the very one we’d be driving during our stay. The resort staff warmly introduced themselves and explained the dining coupons and breakfast options, which can be pre-ordered and will be delivered directly to your villa. Each guest is entitled to one main dish, with select items like congee and fried rice available in unlimited portions—and the fried rice, in particular, was exceptionally flavorful. We were also shown the riverside area where guests are welcome to relax and play. You can walk right into the stream, which has just the right depth—shallow and safe, perfect for unwinding. The overall atmosphere of the property beautifully blends Land Rover’s rugged elegance with refined hospitality. Upon entering the villa, you’re immediately embraced by a cozy-yet-luxurious ambiance. It’s not a flashy kind of luxury, but rather a quiet sophistication marked by thoughtfully selected, high-quality furnishings and amenities. The cool air and soft, romantic background music create a serene and welcoming mood. The living area features a plush sofa perfect for lounging and watching TV, with a large bathtub positioned just behind. You can soak in the tub, light a few candles, and still enjoy the show thanks to a discreet glass partition and in-bathroom speakers synced with the TV. Although photos may not fully convey the experience, the atmosphere is both refreshing and warmly inviting. The Land Rover theme is tastefully woven throughout—from the branded speaker system and coffee table books to a miniature Land Rover model and an insulated bottle, all of which are fully functional. Even the decorative jars on display contain real snacks, tea, and coffee. Upstairs, there’s a beautifully designed grill area that looks well-equipped and stylish, though we didn’t get a chance to use it during this visit. The resort also provided the ticket to feed the animals and to see the show at the farm.

Nice place to enjoy with children. Many games to play. It has many animal shows at different times. The ticket includes free snacks and games. Sheep and dog shows are the best. You can feed the animals. Good place to take photos.

The Scenery Vintage Farm in Suan Phueng, Ratchaburi is one of the most charming places I’ve visited in the area 🎠🐑. It’s peaceful, beautifully designed, and absolutely worth the entrance fee. The dog and sheep show was a real highlight 🐑🐏🐕. They was really fun, well-performed, and great for kids and adults. I loved wandering through the cute photo zones with a vintage countryside theme. The whole place is clean and well maintained, with plenty of spots to sit and relax. There are small cafés and souvenir shops, so you can enjoy snacks and drinks while taking in the view. It’s a wonderful place for a half-day trip if you’re looking to unwind and experience a bit of nature and fun🫶🏻

In love with this beautiful farm stay! One of the best stay I have had. The rooms are beautiful, restaurant food are really good. The owner must have spent a lot of money designing and maintaining this beautiful farm. Staffs are warm, friendly and professional despite not able to speak English but you can feel their warmth. We spent the whole day just sitting and having high tea at the river. It was so nice and peaceful. The breakfast spread is insanely huge, more like brunch for us. We love their bread, scones, yogurt and fruit juices and the fried rice. Not forgetting their banana chips! Love how the animals are treated, the bond between the staffs and animals must have been great. As an animal lover this is important for me. Our only disappointment was that the ATV and land rover were fully booked. Thank you for the great service in this beautiful farm stay and I will definitely be back again.

Just take around 30 minutes to finish the whole place. The children will love this place as there are many rabbits. 150 baht per adult (not include 4D photo). Nice decoration and the garden is well decorated. The bird cage is still on process of construction and not many bits to see. The koi fish is quiet impressive and fun to watch with the swan and ducks are quiet friendly. Recommended for kids!

Good place to enjoy with children. Games to play. Boating available. A lot of animals to feed. Scenic place to take photos.

Small fantastic recreation park with 3D photo background and animal fun area. This place is suitable for families to visit for 1-2 hr for photo shooting, animal feeding and water paddling.

This is a perfect place to visit for family. There are a lot of beautiful views and cute animals. Totally recommend ✨✨

It’s aging, many areas require touch up and some areas were even closed. Some farm animals around and a giant lake for boat peddling activity. One of the much less dress up theme parks in Suan Phueng.

So relaxing place to visit. They have small zoo where you can see some animals - especially Capybara. I also enjoyed feeding the koi fish on the Koi Pond and the rabbits. They have a bay area that has a cute and picturesque view. Every corner is a place for a perfect and nice picture. Felt like I'm a child again upon visiting the place.

Scenic location with various attractions to keep both adults n kids engaged… ponies, deer, rabbits, sheeps, fishes, boat rides.. entry fee for adults to Veneto mini zoo is 150THB… entry fee for 4D art gallery is 70THB… combi ticket is 220THB… 4D art gallery is must visit don’t skip as the 4D art work is excellent and worth capturing for illusion pic….all animal sections has feeding options so kids will have great fun along with game booths around…must visit if your in Suan Pheung.. call them before going due travel restrictions in these days due pandemic… kids will love this place and even adults will have their share of entertainment…

Good farm style cafe with focus on melon and sweet potatoes. Many DIY options for kids and garden to wander around. Worth stopping for good dessert too.

Good location, about 15 km from resort places. Very sweet and fresh melon. Variety menus, pizzas, lasagna, salads, fruit smoothies, pastas, and good desserts from melon. Recommend for family with little kids. Farm was closed, not allowed to visit.

This is a Japanese conservation themed cafe. The menu consist mainly of Melon themed drinks and dessert. The atmosphere of the cafe is calming and super cozy. Suitable for couples going for tea. There is also freshly cut melons for sale as well. The melons are sweet and fragrant. Good place to visit.

Great roadside stop!!!! Enjoy some delicious refreshing frozen yogurt and the food is very good too. Stroll the farm field area and enjoy. We came for the melon and sweet potato frozen yogurt. However we also ended up buying some fresh mulberry and other items at their store. I highly recommend giving this place a try!!!

This place is 150km or 2 hrs drive from Bangkok in the Ratchaburi province. The farm claimed to be practising organic method of farming. The main fruit cultivated here are the Japanese Tomi melon and the tomatoes. This place has also a market selling the fruits as well as the products made from the fruits such as melon jam, tea, sauces, drinks like melon shake melon ice cream etc. They also sell the mascot of the farm. There’s the bakery/cafe where you can have your meals. If you are interested to plant mini tree in a glass it, they have such facilities too. Overall a nice place to visit. I enjoyed their ice cream. Unfortunately, the farm planting the melon was closed temporarily for maintenance when I was there.

The place is family friendly. The kids can enjoy marking farm crafts such as make their own plants bottle or shopping bag. Harvest melons and enjoy a melon meal. Really very good for photo taking. Food their is organic and really yummy. Even my eight months son take a lot of cut melons. I think we can go back their when the sweet melon are at the season of harvest.

Lovely Field located next to the road. Many more activities to enjoy with family and friends. Great restaurant and nicely selected freshly brew coffee. Also have nice ice-cream and fresh Melon from their farm at reasonable price. A must place to visit if you are happen to be around there!

Not super hot, but nice to bathe in after a few nights camping! 80 baht for farangs, best time an hour before it closes on a week day, we had the place to ourselves.

Small scale hot spring pool and leg soaking area. There are local stores selling fruits and veggies along the way. Don’t set expectations and you will really experience the local ways.

Haven't been for a long time. Seem like everything is quite the same. The hot spring is still hot and comfortable. Tiles hot pool also look the same. Original pool (soil pool) is look a little smaller.

It's so amazing, not just the hot springs water but also the whole area including the Kao Chon water falls in Ratchabury province, Thailand. I highly recommend it for everyone, particularly people who love nature like myself.

At the place that prepare for the tourists, there are many ponds. The water is warm. But i prefer to go to the headwaters. very clam and the water is pure hot water. Of cause, you are permit to put your foot into the water because the villager use it for living.

Hot spring place is good for health. Entrance fee is very reasonable (THB 5 per person) including free of charge for putting feet in the hot springs.

Relax and chill with hot water. Pools are clean if you come early. Their own resort looks old and I found tick on my bed. Better find other resort if you can. There is no public transit to this place. So it is not recommended if you don't have private vehicle.

This resort is a hidden gem! Lush green lawns create the perfect setting for relaxation and stunning photos. The pool is absolutely amazing; it feels just like swimming in the ocean! It's the ideal place to unwind and soak up the sun. I highly recommend this tranquil escape for anyone seeking a peaceful getaway. The beautiful scenery is incredibly picturesque. It’s a perfect blend of relaxation and natural beauty.

The place is very nice. There's a mini zoo, multi-themed gardens, and a cafe with a picturesque view. There are also several pools and slides to enjoy at a very affordable price. If you decide to spend the night, the resort also has many rooms to choose from. There are fancy ones with scenic views or plain cozy rooms where you can stay comfortably. Room rates are also affordable. There are only a few guests during weekdays so if you want to chill as if you own the whole resort, then this time is best. Weekends and public holidays are packed with people and all their attractions are also open. If you want to meet new people then weekends are best for you.

The room price does not correspond to the facility. Shower tray broken, risk of injury. The toilet is always running, the emergency lighting system is defective. The slides show weakness as the metal rusts everywhere - risk of accidents. Just a few examples.

Go early on the weekend to avoid crowds - the afternoons get very busy. It's a hour or two drive from Ratchaburi City on the border with Myanmar. It is terrific fun, spacious and the food prices are quite reasonable considering you have to buy there and not allowed to take food or drink inside. Make sure you try out the waves at the beach - awesome.

Real nice and spend with kids...

A bit out of the way but a great place to take the children. There are plenty of slides and no shortage of food and drink on sale.

The boys weren’t allowed to wear swimming shorts and had to rent a pair of spandex shorts. The water was a bit chilly but there were lots of pools, slides, and other activities. Our kids enjoyed riding ponies for an additional fee and there was a big ball pit for an additional fee. Most of the signs are only in Thai but we still had an enjoyable afternoon!

This market is impressively well-organized, from the attentive parking attendants to the friendly volunteer who guided visitors on the order of giving alms to the monks and what to expect as they arrived on the raft. The monks arrived around 7:30–7:45 AM, which was the main highlight for us—a beautiful and serene moment to witness. We also loved the community’s commitment to being plastic-free, with everything thoughtfully wrapped in banana leaves or paper. However, while the experience was lovely, we found that all the dishes leaned too sweet for our taste.

Oh Poi Market in Suan Phueng, Ratchaburi, is truly a hidden gem! This charming riverside food market offers a wide variety of freshly cooked dishes, all prepared on the spot with care and creativity.

Most vendors use eco-friendly, plastic-free packaging, which made the entire experience even more delightful. The atmosphere is serene and inviting, thanks to its location right by a gentle stream.

Overview & Highlights • ตลาดโอ๊ะป่อย (Oh Poi Market) is a morning riverside community market in Suan Phueng, Ratchaburi, typically open on Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays from about 7:00 a.m. to 14:00 p.m.  • The market is located adjacent to the Lam Phachi stream (ลำน้ำภาชี), giving it a naturally tranquil, forested ambiance.  • One of its signature cultural highlights is the monks coming by bamboo raft around 7:30–8:00 a.m. for alms – a sacred, picturesque moment that many visitors plan to attend.  • “โอ๊ะป่อย” itself comes from the Karen (กะเหรี่ยง) language meaning “rest” or “relaxation,” reflecting the intended vibe of the place.  • The market was developed by local community cooperation, involving the village, temple, school, and relevant authorities.  Positives (Strengths) 1. Natural & Scenic Setting – The riverside locale, shaded paths, and flowing water make the market a refreshing change from urban or commercialized markets. 2. Cultural Experience – The alms ceremony by raft adds spiritual depth and is a unique attraction that blends local tradition and tourism. 3. Authentic Local Products – You’ll find traditional Karen / community-made goods, local snacks, handcrafted items, and native cuisine.  4. Affordable & Community-Friendly – Prices for food and drinks are relatively low; there are seating areas and basic amenities.  5. Free Parking & No Entry Fee – Visitors can park across the street in a temple area for free; there is no entrance fee.  6.

Photogenic Spots & Cultural Immersion – Many visitors dress in local-style (Karen) clothing, use natural crafts as backdrops, and take photos in immersive surroundings.  ⸻ Areas for Improvement / Considerations 1. Crowd Management – At peak hours (especially during the alms ceremony), the market can become crowded, which may detract from the peaceful ambience. 2. Early Arrival Recommended – To avoid midday heat and limited shade, visitors are advised to arrive early (ideally around opening time).  3. Limited Operating Hours & Days – The fact that it only operates on weekends and certain holidays restricts accessibility for tourists with tight schedules. 4. Facilities & Infrastructure – While basic facilities exist, improvements could include better restroom amenities, signage, more seating / shade, and clearer pathways. 5. Weather Dependency – Since it is outdoor and riverside, weather (rain or strong sun) can substantially affect the experience. 6. Food Variety & Hygiene – Though many visitors praise the food, ensuring consistency in hygiene standards and variety of choices would be important, especially under higher traffic. 7. Transport / Access – Public transit access is limited; most visitors come by private car. Signposting and shuttle options might enhance accessibility. Overall Impression & Recommendation ตลาดโอ๊ะป่อย is a charming and meaningful destination, especially ideal for visitors seeking a slower, more authentic cultural experience away from crowded tourist traps. It combines nature, tradition, local craftsmanship, and community spirit into a meaningful day activity. For those who enjoy photography, local flavors, and spiritual ambiance, this market is likely to leave a warm, memorable impression. To get the most out of the experience, plan to arrive early, stay mindful of the weather, and allow enough time to enjoy the ritual of the early morning alms. With some enhancements in infrastructure and visitor services, ตลาดโอ๊ะป่อย could become even more sustainable and comfortable without losing its essential character.
