Chinatown is one of the bustling commercial districts in the western part of downtown Bangkok. It is also one of Bangkok’s oldest neighborhoods. Chinatown dates back nearly 200 years. The houses here are mostly older, but business is flourishing. Almost all of the managers are Chinese or overseas Chinese. Chinatown is connected to 3 main streets (Sampeng Lane, Yaowarat Road, and Charoen Krung Road) as well as many other streets. Chinatown has retained the traditional culture typical of China and the customs and characteristics of the Chinese community. Business is booming. You can feel the rich Chinese atmosphere in Chinatown. Every year, there are lively lion dances and dragon dances during Lunar New Year.

Nice place if you like street foods. Very crowded but still worth to go, nice place for shopping too!
It's a place for day & night.. with lots of food, local shops & food. You can plan a breakfast lunch,tea break & dinner in that area as cafe & Street food around. .
Not recommended, dirty, messy, dark. There is nothing worth visiting, many Yiwu small commodities. The whole atmosphere is very uncomfortable, I feel like a Yang in the sewer, and many shops also provide various god Buddha statues with red lights, which look very strange. I left quickly. It is not recommended for Chinese people to go, it is not interesting. Foreigners are still experiencing Chinese characteristics.
Came on February 7, 2023. Bangkok Chinatown is a relatively large overseas Chinese settlement area in the world. After all, Chinese people have a long history of overseas Chinese residence in Thailand, and they are endless in the local area. In the past two years, the subway has been around, and Chinatown is a must-see attraction for Chinese people. The feeling of coming here is quite "Chinatown". After a moment of staying here, an emotion engraved in DNA completely awakened. The fireworks here are different from the "lively" in other parts of Bangkok. Also here, I saw the only SCB with a Chinese name ("Thailand Huishang Bank"). For me, there is a strange and intimate feeling here, not foreign, but more like a foreign place. The same cultural tradition makes me feel that this is no stranger to the kind of people here, although some people can't speak our language, but words and behavior are still our paradigm, especially great. In addition, it is strongly recommended that you come in the evening and taste the street snacks here, which is definitely worthy of our Chinese stomach.
The second time I came to Chinatown to punch in, it feels like 🇨🇳 in China. It is very kind and nostalgic. There is a Chinese heart and Chinese stomach. It feels like it is in China. It is very convenient to eat, shop and communicate. Basically, the merchants will have some Chinese, communication barrier-free, various bags, clothes, Shoes, small commodities, daily necessities, etc., etc., are very Chinese, love love, Chinese must punch in, let you feel at home 😊
