Ko Thepho, situated in Sakae Krang Subdistrict, is Thailand’s largest freshwater island. Originally, it served as a peninsula dividing the Chao Phraya River and the Sakae Krang River, where they converged in the peninsula’s southern direction. Later, a canal was dug to link the northern side, enabling the Chao Phraya River to support the Sakae Krang River during dry seasons. Consequently, it evolved into Ko Thepho as it stands today. A suspension bridge connects the municipal fresh market and Wat Uposatharam. Visitors to Ko Thepho often enjoy cycling along the surrounding bike paths, which offer tranquil landscapes of bamboo forests, cornfields, and rice paddies, providing a serene and peaceful ambiance.
