A Beginner's Guide to Street Art in Bangkok's Old Town

This is my first attempt at a review, so please bear with me. I hope this simple guide will be helpful for anyone interested in exploring the street art scene in Bangkok's charming Old Town.

My adventure began on a weekend when I was looking for a fun and local activity. With limited time, I decided to explore the street art scene around Charoen Krung and Talad Noi. It was like a real-life Pokemon Go, navigating through alleyways and discovering hidden gems of street art by both Thai and international artists. Along the way, I was captivated by the beauty of the old houses and the vibrant energy of the neighborhood. My journey started with a boat ride from Nonthaburi pier to Ratchawong pier.

The short boat ride brought us swiftly to the Royal Pier.

A short walk from the pier will lead you to Thanon Song Wat.

Follow the curved road sign and turn right. Continue walking straight along the road, enjoying the charming old houses and the cityscape. There are many beautiful old houses, perfect for hipster-style photoshoots. Don't worry, you don't have to be a hipster to appreciate them. Wedding or graduation photoshoots would also look amazing here. The unique and unconventional style is a hidden gem. Just a heads-up, don't get too lost in the scenery. The street art murals are hidden in nooks and crannies, along the sides of buildings and houses. For example, if you walk straight along the curved road for a while, you'll find our elephant friend in the parking lot area.

After taking the photo, walk straight ahead until you reach a fork in the road. Continue straight ahead and you will find this statue on the opposite side of the alley next to Wat Pathum Khongkha. However, this photo was taken at night because I didn't see it when I first walked past. I didn't see it again until it was evening, so let's take a look at the evening photo first.

After walking for a while, we came across Phanu Rangsi Alley. Walk into the alley and you will see the Phanu Rangsi Pier. Don't go to the pier, but turn left and look for the Zhou Si Gong Temple (Talad Noi). The alley may be winding and confusing, especially for first-timers. I was confused too, but I asked the local uncles and aunts for directions. Ask for Duangtawan Alley, which has murals and classic cars.
