Ko Ratanakosin & Thonburi
The artificial island of Ko Ratanakosin is Bangkok's birthplace, and the Buddhist
temples and royal palaces here comprise some of the city's most important and
most visited sights. By contrast, Thonburi, located across Mae Nam Chao Phraya
(Chao Phraya River), is a seemingly forgotten yet visit-worthy zone of sleepy
residential districts connected by
klorng
(canals, also spelt
khlong
).
