Samphanthawong, Bangkok's Chinatown, is the smallest district by area in Thailand, bounded by Pom Prap Sattru Phai, Bang Rak, Khlong San, and Phra Nakhon. Yaowarat Road, Wat Tri Mit Witayaram, and Sampheng Market anchor the district's commercial and religious character. The area contains numerous temples alongside historical sites and markets that reflect its Chinese heritage.
