Kudi Chin community &Wat Kalayanamit

Kudi Chin community is one of the Bangkok’s oldest communities. It was a Portuguese community. They came along from Ayutthaya with the Siamese after the fall of Ayutthaya in 1767. It is a peaceful place and small area where we can walk by houses along the alley to the Museum. One of the oldest churches in Bangkok - known as Santa Cruz church was built by the Portuguese in 1769 after the King Taksin granted them the land.
