Khlong Bang Luang
Khlong Bang Luang, officially known as Khlong Bangkok Yai, is a canal that<br>has existed since the Ayutthaya period. Initially, it was part of the Chao Phraya River. It became a canal only after a shortcut was created to shorten the distance of boat trips between Bangkok and Ayutthaya. Khlong Bangkok Yai is also widely referred to as Khlong Bang Luang following King Taksin the Great’s decision to establish Thon Buri as the new capital of Siam.
