✅CHAROEN KRUNG ROAD: BANGKOK'S BEST WALKS | Talat Noi | Old City | Creative District | Chinatown

Bangkok's Charoen Krung Road is Thailand's first and oldest street, with amazing hidden history right from the start: The Old City through Khlong Ong Ang Walking Street, Chinatown, past Talat Noi area and into Bangrak, via the Creative District, which is as far as this video is going! Part 2 later. There are many histotic buildings, bridges, landmarks, architecture, canals and points on the way with a story to be told. Charoen Krung Road was built because foreign doplomats had nowhere to go for a walk so petitioned the King. This was back in 1862 and Thailand's oldest road was born.
