Huai Khwang

Huai Khwang is a central district of Bangkok with residential areas, business centers, and entertainment venues spread throughout the neighborhood. The zone revolves around Ratchadaphisek Road and includes shopping centers, restaurants, and office buildings that shape the urban landscape.

The district was created in 1973 from the former Phaya Thai area and underwent significant boundary changes in the following decades. These territorial adjustments eventually led to the establishment of a separate Din Daeng District.

The Thailand Cultural Centre draws art enthusiasts from across the city, while the Ganesha Shrine near the MRT station serves visitors seeking moments of spiritual reflection and prayer.

The district is easily accessible through Huai Khwang MRT station, which connects to shopping centers and commercial areas. Visitors will find good infrastructure with restaurants, cafés, and shops throughout the neighborhood for dining and shopping.

The area has transformed into a new Chinese neighborhood with many Chinese residents and students living there. This growth has shaped the zone with new restaurants, shops, and a distinct cultural character.
