About
Plaeng Nam Road (ถนนแปลงนาม). This small road feels like a time machine with an atmosphere of at least one hundred years old. It is an excellent showcase of ancient Chinese civilization. If coming from Charoen Krung Road, pass the Mongkol Smakhorm Temple and the ancient Chinese pharmacy and on the right side you will find Guang Jiab Xia, a shop selling and repairing traditional Chinese musical instruments. Generally they are also trying one of the instruments playing traditional Chinese music. Close by is Liang Guang Panich, a 70-year old shop that sells ancient Thai and foreign lamps.
