Bangkok Living Beside the River of Culture

Abstract

This book is in order to amass intellectual capital on the history and culture of Bangkok for Bangkokians and other interested parties. This also helps to cultivate Bangkok as a learning metropolis, corresponding to the BMA's policy to instill and nurture love, pride, and sense of belonging in the amazing wealth and character of Thailand's cultural heritages. This will eventually create voluntary participation and joint contribution from all concerned in the development of the city's cultural identity for coming generations.
