Chinatown

BKK Highlight

Chinatown

"Chinatown" as a district of any non-Chinese town, especially a city or seaport, in which the population is predominantly of Chinese origin". Bangkok's Chinatown is a popular tourist attraction and a food haven for new generation gourmands who flock here after sunset to explore the vibrant street-side cuisine. At day time, it's no less busy, as hordes of shoppers descend upon this 1-km strip and adjacent Charoenkrung Road to get a day's worth of staple, trade gold, or pay a visit to one of the Chinese temples.

Packed with market stalls, street-side restaurants and a dense concentration of gold shops, Chinatown is an experience not to miss.
