The rich history of the Chao Phraya River of Thailand is intertwined with the city. Once a site chosen by early settlers due to its fertility and abundant fish, the river is now the western banks of Thonburi.
Bangkok is never far from resources for a condominium for use or investment, but the riverside has always been an ideal spot for buyers and investors alike.
An iconic symbol for Bangkok, Thailand
Chao Phraya River is an iconic symbol of Bangkok. For centuries, the Thai have used the Chao Phraya, particularly its canal system, to enrich people’s lives as a source of water.
Even today, you can find embassies, five-star hotels and trading firms on the banks of the Chao Phraya River. Once again, the river grew with new trade and industry: the most attractive temple and themed shopping venue of recent years.
The western part of Bangkok, which most people refer to as the Thon Buri side of the Chao Phraya River.
Thonburi is a riverside community located on the western banks of the Chao Phraya River. It was the capital of Thailand for a short time in 1768. After the capital was moved across the river, Thonburi becomes one of many districts that make up the city of Bangkok, with many attractions for tourists.
An abundance of attractions
A great place to start for local-style eateries is Wang Lang Market, which is easy to reach by river ferry and puts you close to some offbeat attractions like Siriraj Medical Museum and Wat Rakang.
Or across the Chao Phraya from Chinatown and accessible by cross-river ferry, a clutch of food stalls and shops fronting Tha Din Daeng Pier is also worth your while. Further south down the river, Khlong San Night Market is a compact cluster of clothing and food stalls with some low-key bars ideal for an early evening beer by the river. From there, you could stroll south to the art and design hub, The Jam Factory, or take the sky train west for loads of street food with a Chinese-Thai flare at Talad Phlu.
In addition, a new large-scale shopping mall, Icon Siam, on the Chao Phraya River bank is included the Golden Line, which adds the appeal of the area, and Thonburi become more attractive for developers.
The ideal place to start is Bangkok, Thailand.
Before the expansion of mass transit, most residential projects on the western side of the river are older housing and low rise developments. Still, the new mass transit helping connects and make Thonburi close to the city’s heart by offering convenient commuting to CBD areas like Silom and Sathorn.
Generally, the west side of the Chao Phraya has lower and affordable prices. The area is now better connected to Central Bangkok, especially with the recent launch of the MRT Blue Line extensions and the Gold Line located on Charoen Nakhon already opened in 2021, connecting Icon Siam to Bangkok’s main mass transit connections. And as the BTS light rail continues its push west of the Chao Phraya River, the Talat Phlu area became one of the popular condominium development areas with BTS Green Line connecting Talat Phlu to CBD directly. Only 20 minutes (4-7 Stations) to CBD (Silom – Sathorn).
The neighbourhood is transforming from an old fashioned and crowded commercial area into a trendy and charming leisure and lifestyle destination. Numerous developments are gentrifying the area, with a growing number of developers converting old industrial warehouses and old-style shophouses into hip leisure and entertainment venues.
