Lonely Planet review for Th Bamrung Meuang
One of the city’s earliest thoroughfares (the street was originally an elephant path leading to the royal palace), today the stretches of Th Bamrung Meuang that extend directly west and east of Wat Suthat form an open-air shopping centre for all manner of religious paraphernalia. In the shops, the contents of which pour out onto the street, you’ll see care packages that are typically bought and donated to temples, models of famous monks, monk robes and other devotional items. The large Buddha statues that are wrapped in plastic are particularly photogenic.
