The Changing Nature of Klong Ong Ang

Bangkok, having learnt lessons from conflicts over public space throughout the years, has created a new and innovative approach that is responsive to the needs of individual cities.

Klong Ong Ang (meaning pottery canal), an old town area of Bangkok, serves as a regulatory model that has successfully transformed a dilapidated toy market and a severely polluted canal into a new recreational oasis attracting busy foot traffic from locals and foreign visitors alike. 

Once a scruffy market for toys and electronic gadgets enthusiasts, Klong Ong Ang is now Bangkok’s latest leisure hotspot for people from all walks of life after undergoing a major beautification.
