Itinerary

Chinatown is full of history and one of the most fascinating areas of Bangkok, with action at all hours and surprises at every turn, a maze of narrow alleys, hidden centuries-old temples, gold shops, Chinese pharmacies with mysterious medicines and dried herbs, and hectic markets. \ Chinatown is an area that’s different compared to all the others; old and imposing buildings, colorfully bright neon signs, low houses, and typical restaurants are just a few of the characteristics that make this commercial area even more authentic and alive. To experience the authentic Thai way of life in this part of Bangkok, one must wander through the narrow alleyways to get an impression how the locals live their day to day lives. Perfect for the photo enthusiast, our walking tour gives you ample opportunity to experience Chinatown, ask questions, and take it all in.
