Bangkok city guide

Bangkok - Banglamphu (Chapter)

This is the Banglamphu chapter from Lonely Planet's Bangkok guidebook.

Leafy lanes, antique shophouses, buzzing wet markets and golden temples convene in Banglamphu – easily the city's most quintessential 'Bangkok' neighbourhood. It's a quaint postcard picture of the city that used to be… until you stumble on Th Khao San, the intergalactic backpacker melting pot that's anything but traditional.

  • V0isit Th Khao San: more than just freaks in dreadlocks and fisherman pants, it's a unique cultural melting pot with something for (almost) everyone
  • maps
  • Take in the panoramic views of old Bangkok from Golden Mount.
  • transport
  • Sit and gazing at the huge Buddha and skyhigh murals in Wat Suthat
  • restaurants & bars

Coverage includes: Neighbourhood Top Five, Local Life, Getting There & Away, Sights, Eating, Drinking & Nightlife, Entertainment, Shopping, Sleeping and Sports & Activities.
