Itinerary
Wander the backstreets of Bangkok’s old Talad Noi district where Chinese merchants’ mansions meet converted warehouse cafés and trendy street art. Travel by public transport and take a boat along the Chao Phraya River to explore an interesting mix of old and new in a lesser-seen part of town. Walk past a neoclassical mansion that was once the French Distillery Company’s office, browse local designer boutiques at a converted warehouse and admire street art in hidden lanes. Pass by a Catholic church, Bangkok’s oldest bank building and a Chinese merchant’s mansion that reveals the history of this community and its connections with 19th century Chinese traders. Enjoy a refreshment at a local café before taking a tuk tuk back to your hotel or nearest public transport.
