A temple is more than a place of worship. Located on a bank of the Chao Phraya River, Wat Thong Noppakhun is offering food for democratic thought. Surrounded by leafy trees, its library is now home to a large number of non-official history books, some of which are controversial in what remains a conservative society.
This is the final chapter in our day trips using the Skytrain and MRT network and I picked the Gold Line to the Klong San neighbourhood as the ultimate destination. Instead of cruising, travellers now have another option for crossing the Chao Phraya River and observe the unique lifestyle of riverside communities on a walking tour of Bangkok's western side.
