Even if you just arrived in Bangkok this morning, you’re almost certainly already familiar with Thai food. And we’re here today in Bangkok’s oldest neighborhood because many of these roots can still be seen. To give you a clearer picture of these influences, today we’re going to make stops at a market, food stalls, restaurants, factories, a mall and more. And because food also has to do with culture and history, we also make stops at places that enhance the old stories and backgrounds of those important places in Bangkok.

Wat Ratchaburana Ratchaworawihan
This ancient temple, built in the 15th century, is famous for its impressive architecture and historical significance. It's located in the vicinity of Wang Burapha.On this afternoon-into-evening tour, we’ll explore this culinary changing of the guard, tasting our way through some of the city’s best nighttime food spots while also gaining an understanding of their important role in maintaining Oaxaca’s civic life. Along the way, we’ll stroll through historic neighborhoods and public spaces, experiencing a side of the city few visitors get to – day or night.
Chinatown / Yaowarat
While not exactly in Wang Burapha, Yaowarat is close by and is one of the busiest and most vibrant areas in Bangkok, filled with street food, markets, and cultural attractions.

5.00We had a fantastic first day in Bangkok with Lek as our food guide! So nay fabulous eats and Lek was more than patient to answer our questions about Thai customs, history and habits. He also survived, I hope, my husband’s constant telling of jokes!)
