This is undoubtedly one of the most charming
and scenic places Bangkok has to offer. The Riverside encompasses
a large area and is of historic significance in documenting the
evolution of trade, warehousing and commercial activity. Today,
it is an area for prime real estate and commercial development.
Many hotels have established themselves here, especially near the
area of Bangkrak.
What's fascinating about the area is the opportunity to observe
the beehive of activity taking place - from taxi boats plying their
regular routes, to rice barges being towed to nearby warehouses.
In the northern area is Sanam Loung and Bang
Lum Phu - the political capital of Bangkok renown for its popular
and historic landmarks. Moving south, the middle area is Chinatown,
Silom and Bangrak - the commercial and business districts. Even
further south, are the areas Charoen Krung and Klongtoey - the warehousing
and trans shipment centers.
