Khlong Toei is a central Bangkok district bordered by the Chao Phraya River, home to major port facilities and a significant slum. The Khlong Toei Market operates here alongside sites including Nana Plaza and the Science Centre for Education. The district holds limited appeal for most travellers, though its market and scattered temples provide modest interest to those passing through.
