Info
Wang Burapha (Thai: วังบูรพา) is a historic neighbourhood in Bangkok. It is situated between Charoen Krung, Maha Chai, Phahurat and Burapha roads, near the eastern edge of the old city centre of Rattanakosin Island in Phra Nakhon District. The neighbourhood is named after Buraphaphirom Palace, which used to be located here until the 1950s, when it was demolished to make way for commercial developments. The neighbourhood became a major commercial district and a centre of youth culture during the 1950s–60s.
