My Trip

Talat Noi, the riverside Chinatown, is a treasure house for architecture buffs, where 200-year-old Chinese-merchant mansions, old repair shops, and street art tangle together. From a 5.5-ton solid-gold Buddha to a Hokkien mansion with a diving pool, a riverside church, and a restored Chinese-style dock mansion.
