Chao Phraya: The Heartbeat of Bangkok

Getting There

• Car

  If you're traveling by car, head towards Khlong San in Bangkok. From central Bangkok, drive south on the Chao Phraya River Road (Rama I Road) and follow the signs for Khlong San. The river is easily accessible, and there are parking options available nearby. Be aware that parking might incur a fee, which can vary depending on the location.

• Public Transportation - BTS Skytrain

  Take the BTS Skytrain to Krung Thonburi Station (the Silom Line). Once you arrive, exit the station and head towards the river. You can either walk to the Chao Phraya River or catch a taxi or tuk-tuk. If you choose to walk, head southeast on Somdet Chao Phraya Road and follow the signs to the river. The BTS fare ranges from 15 to 59 THB depending on your starting point.

• Public Transportation - Boat

  From any location in Bangkok, you can also take a boat to reach Khlong San. If you're already near the river, locate a Chao Phraya Express Boat pier. Purchase a ticket at the pier, which typically costs between 15 to 40 THB depending on your destination. Board the boat heading towards Khlong San Pier. Enjoy the scenic ride along the river, disembarking at the Khlong San Pier to explore the area.

• Taxi

  For a more direct route, consider taking a taxi. Simply provide the driver with the address: Khlong San, Bangkok 10600. Taxis in Bangkok are relatively inexpensive, with most rides costing between 100 to 300 THB, depending on the distance. Ensure the driver uses the meter to avoid overcharging.
