Thonburi is the district on the western bank of the Chao Phraya River, a different side of Bangkok from the central districts on the other bank. The apartment sits in the Bang Kho area, where the old neighbourhoods are known for their canals, called khlongs, their temples and small local markets. For visitors who want to see daily life along the waterways rather than only the big shopping streets, the district is an easy place to spend a few hours.

Wutthakat BTS station is close to the property and links to the skytrain network across the city, so the central districts are reachable by train. Wat Arun, the Temple of Dawn, is 4.1 km away, its tall prang rising above the river. The Grand Palace is 4.8 km away, on the other side of the river. Several smaller temples, among them Wat Nak Prok and Wat Phleng, lie in the streets close by, and Elio ground park offers a green place to stop nearby.

A good day here can start with a boat ride along a khlong, continue with the temples on the western bank, and finish with a crossing to the Grand Palace area on the other side of the river. Another day can take in the Museum of Siam in the old city, which covers Thai history and culture.
