Klong Toey has much more to see than the famous 24-hour market on Rama IV. This is truly an adventure not to be missed!

RoyRak Creative is a fair trade organization dedicated to helping the local families who live in the slums of Klong Toey earn income by making crafts. This small group from the Klong Toey community designs and makes jewellery to sell in Thailand and around the world. "RoyRak" means "bead love" in the Thai language and that's what this Creative is all about—bringing out the best in the community and sharing it with others.
