#thailandtrip Phra Sumen Fort is a fortress built during the reign of King Rama I. At that time, 14 forts were built to protect the capital.

#GetDiscountsWithoutLuck Currently, Bang Lamphu is holding Bangkok Design Week 2025 ✨ If you are free, I recommend you to come and walk around. In the evening, around Phra Sumen Fort, you can see the evening light. Walking around and looking at the vibe of this area is really great. The light is beautiful and there are so many cool shops. When the sky starts to get dark, you can wait to see the beautiful lights. There are 2 places that we went to: The first is New World Mall, which will have workshops to immerse yourself in Bang Lamphu food experiences and an exhibition that tells the story of New World Mall from the past to the present before this memorable department store enters a major transformation. And the other place is Phra Sumen Fort, which will have a Projection Mapping that tells the story of Bang Lamphu's changes over time through the perspectives of locals. Everyone is welcome to join in adding patterns and colors that reflect the identity of 'Bang Lamphu' together. 📍 The event will be held from February 15-23 only. #หนีนายไปJourney #BKKDW2025 #BangkokDesignWeek

#thailandtrip Phra Sumen Fort is just a white fort, nothing more to say about it. But the small park around the fort is a nice place to take a rest, to relax after too much walking - "walk, walk, walk", like my wife describes our day trips - and just to look at the river. Bangkok busyness with its all too many cars and traffic jams can be a stressing place, so it's good that there are parks there and there in Bangkok to spend some time to get back your curiousity, and after that, let's walk again...
